While Googling my username, I came across this. I'm more famous then I even thought I was.

Woah... There are gabazillions of people called DumDeDum who aren't me.

Apparently my last name has a bike company, and if you search for "Speckeldorf", there's my dA, a story I wrote in sixth grade about a guy named Speckeldorf, my profile on this forum, and my profile on my own forum which I deleted.

who hasn't googled themself? I found myself on the submitions I sent to newgrounds, here, and various xangas of friends.

Heh, Google my real name (first + last) and the first thing that comes up is my comic site. :P And my REALLY REALLY OLD Pokemon fansite that I honestly didn't even think still existed, but apparently, it's still there.

Doing image searches of your name/screenname is way more fun, though:

My real name brings up this; oddly enough, image searching my full name brings up like twenty pictures of dogs and nothing else. o_O Not even the same dog, either; twenty different dogs who all have the same name. Weird.

And image-searching my screenname brings up this...well that was obvious

I'm googled my real name, and came up with pretty much nothing. Nothing that actually linked to me, anyways. I've googled my screen name, anc came up with a link to the one time I posted on Penny Arcade....and a few other times I've posted on forums.

I don't really need to Google my name, because I know how the search wwill end. I do a lot of Google Image seaches with my name, that's how I get my avatars.

I found my blog and all the forums I've ever been on, cool beans!

Author:  Acekirby [ Tue Apr 11, 2006 6:35 pm ]
Post subject: 

I mostly get the forums I go on and my LiveJournal. I get a couple from other places as well- someone had the name AceKirby or something a long time ago, but has since changed it.

So now it's AAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL me.

Well, my username gets me two threads from the forum, and then immediately goes into thousands of Spanish websites.

My real name reveals that I'm apparently both a high quality surveyor, and the owner of a wig factory.

My nome-de-plume gets me my xanga site, a shark website, and farming equipment.

Wow, I hit all over the board, don't I?

The name I usually use in forums but couldn't use here because it was taken ("Dangerskew") gives you 471 results. About 10 of those aren't referring to me, and a search of my first name and last name in quotes gives 132 results, all of which are me. An image search of my usual username gives a bunch of pictures I've used on another site and one reference to Homestar Runner. An image search of my name with or without quotes returns nothing.

Post subject: 

My name (with quotes surrounded) comes up with about 942 quotes. I think most of them are of me.

Author:  ModestlyHotGirl [ Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:35 pm ]
Post subject: 

Googling ModestlyHotGirl gives me a whole lot of pages from the forum, a couple from the wiki, and my LJ.
Googling MHG gives a whole lot of corporate-type pages. Apparently MHG is an acronym for a LOT.

Google Image searching my full username gives me one picture of Modestly Hot Homsar.
Using MHG, I get a lot of crap, but I did find this!

Edit: If I Google my real name, my wiki donation comes up on page 3!

Author:  Simon Zeno [ Tue Apr 11, 2006 9:51 pm ]
Post subject: 

Googling my real name yields several local news articles about the academic team at my school, of which I am a part.

Googling my original screen name (Simon Zeno) brings up either my old site, my now non-existant Xanga, articles about Zeno of Elea or Zeno of Citium, or this guy named Zeno Simon, who is a professor of quantum biophysics in some foreign nation.

Googling Santa Zeno, in quotes to avoid confusion, brings up, firstly, my wiki profile, then a bunch of other stuff. Apparently there was a Saint Zeno... and Santa means Saint in some language or another... And under pictures, well, don't search "Santa Zeno" in pictures. There's only one, and it's definitely not me... jibbly.

EDIT: Oh, and apparently, if you search for Simon Zeno in pictures, you'll find my first sprite ever. He's so adorable. :)

I really didn't find anything that has to do with me.
But I did find this cool pic.
I typed my real name and found an article with the honorole students from last year.

Post subject:  we won't be fooled agian!

If you google my real name, mostly you get the newsletter from a church my family used to go to, then some stuff about my dad being adopted. Grr, nothing interesting.

Let's go to the username, shall we? First, there was myself... then some examples of "that's pretty clever, danielle" but with bad punctuation (aka no punctuation). Not much else. Well, you win some, you... how does that go again?

I actually didn't get any of the forums but there is a Dactyl.org!!!! OMG! And a "dactyl" is also some kind of literary term, and also an asteroid! Sweet!

I.Am.An asteroid. Bow down.

My screenname came up with my Wiki Profiles, my Brickfilms.com profiles and films, and something I posted on this one guy's site.

Post subject: 

Mostly almost all the stuff and forums I've ever been in, plus a guy Shingo Einoo who's some sort of professor.

NOTE: That's not with my full forumname, just with Einoo.

Let's see:

My HR Wiki Forum account.

My NWFC Wiki account...wait, Googlebot put up my frickin' account for Jello's Wiki, yet they can't fufill the simple offer of putting us under "Nintendo Wi-Fi" or something? Geeze.

This person's going to die before he wakes up tomorrow.

Uh, another person on a blog who posted something with my name that I won't even put here...

The HR Wiki Guestmap thing...that's pretty old.

Hey, I'm on Ian's DeviantArt...except I can't find where my name came up on it.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That's about it for web searches. As for the images:

Okay, seriously...what the crap is that? That's not even me! Is it possible other DS_Kid's thrive on this planet?

It was actually the rotating black star avvy I had from random.porplemontage, but I prefer the WikiDay link, instead.

...no comment...

I love Googling my name, I get all sorts of intresting results.

Post subject: 

I am cursed with a bad screenname and real name. I only get one with my screenname, and my real name dosen't get me anywhere.

Author:  Seriously. [ Wed Apr 12, 2006 8:15 am ]
Post subject: 

No name I've used including the real one is distinct enough to be listed in Google. I guess I could pick some obscure one, but hey, if you just want to limit the search to the sites you visit you can find your own posts.

Author:  Schmelen [ Wed Apr 12, 2006 12:42 pm ]
Post subject: 

Yep. I've googled myself a lot of times. In the picture search I got all these pictures of some sixty year old auther... She was really ugly.

Author:  Markie [ Wed Apr 12, 2006 3:14 pm ]
Post subject: 

Searching for "Markie" in Google will bring up the following consequences, um, stuff:

-Biz Markie (OH SNAP)
-Markie Post (some actress)
-The Markie Foundation (non-profit organization dedicated to Mark(ie) Warren Wuelfing)
-Markie Web Designs? IN AUSTRALIA?!
-Markie's blog at ebloggy.com (creepy because this guy who owns this blog has some of my interests. Heck, I'm Filipino, a wannabe drummer, but not Catholic. Or I used to. I don't type in all lowercase though.)
-DJ Markie Mark (this should be my full nickname, and I want to be a DJ too)

Yeah, I don't feel like posting links.

The only thing that pops up for my forum name is posts in this forum. I think I said this in a Google fights topic, but bad spelling = bad results.

My real name is much more interesting. In addition to geneology website featuring some guy that lived in the 1800's with my exact name (pretty amazing because I have a wierd name), I get an old website I made 20 years ago that I can't get rid of because the site that hosts it went out of buisness. And yet my website remains. Go figure.

Crappy 8-bit Dancing Bubs everybody! He'll be here all night!
