I just googled myself (for the first time after reading 12 new dating tips)and all I get are my Facebook page, ratings from clients at my job (all pretty good actually,one that hated me found me too perky, but you can't please everyone ) and stats from races I've been in.

So guys, would that throw you off, or, am I good (not that there is anything I can do about it I guess...) ?

I've found lots of info searching on girls I've been out with. Never used any of it to scare them or anything. It is more about the fun of the search really.
For myself.. never tried, but I know there isn't anything to find but a facebook with nothing on it. I only use it to search others

Google results for me: Linkedin, Facebook (and some public facebook things - like comments on NPR, etc), Dean's list for the two colleges I've attended, where I'm registered to vote, some stupid peoplelookmeupdotcom type sites, and a girl in a different state who is quite the high school athlete.

All pretty standard, I think. I have found newspaper articles on men I've met in the past - including a cop who killed someone in the line of duty (he told me a little about it early on). Googling is good, but I don't take it too seriously - so many people share names and it's easy to get results for someone else.

ETA: It's driving me crazy that I can't find the 30 Rock clip with Tracy Jordan talking about googling himself.

I don't see anything in what you have found that would deter someone you are dating. It all sounds pretty good to me.

I'm a university professor who has written many learned papers.

Pretty impressive, for a 10 year old baseball star.

I work at MIT and at Stanford U, while I hobnob with a New York Times columnist since I'm also a major magazine editor. I also sell candles and wedding dresses and do graphics design. I've also been cloned; there are at least 20 of me in California, and a couple hundred in the US. (Maybe I was born in a beehive!)

I'm an attorney and used to be president of my bar association. The first three pages or so if you Google my name are all 95% me.

I'm going to admit to possessing a juvenile sense of humor..."googling yourself" makes me laugh.
