Anonymity and online identity, yet again. in General
Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Monday, June 12 2006 07:48 Profile Homepage #12 quote: Originally written by Dikiyoba: The good news is that searching Google for my first and last name together brings up only two results, both of which present more of a postive impression than a negative one. Also, my real name and "Dikiyoba" haven't been put together online yet. The bad news is that my real name is easy to trace should it ever get out. And it's not difficult at all for anyone who knows me in person to discover that "Dikiyoba" is my online identity, and have problems result from that. Dikiyoba wonders what impression Dikiyoba's fan-fanfic would have on potential employers. After all, Dikiyoba is looking at a career in creative writing. Then it will be worth no less than a letter of commendation, I think. :) -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

Anonymity and online identity, yet again. in General
Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Monday, June 12 2006 07:01 Profile Homepage #7 Nothing private about what you post on a public forum or blog. Once it can be found with Google, any remaining shred of privacy is gone. The only alternative is to separate your real name completely from your moniker, and never mention the real name. -- I just looked again and saw that my last name actually does bring up a Spiderweb-related site very far down in the results. Which would be TM's Geocities site...

Anonymity and online identity, yet again. in General
Arancaytar Law Bringer Member # 2984	written Monday, June 12 2006 04:58 Profile Homepage #0 There is an interesting article on NYT about employers looking up job applicants on social networks to see if they have a questionable background. quote: ... At Facebook, a popular social networking site, the executive found the candidate's Web page with this description of his interests: "smokin' blunts" (cigars hollowed out and stuffed with marijuana), shooting people and obsessive sex, all described in vivid slang. It did not matter that the student was clearly posturing. He was done. Now, I make a point not saying things online that may cause trouble for me in real life - even in fun - but there are definitely some things that I might not want a potential employer to find before an interview. Things that would not be firing offences, but which could give a bad first impression. For example, posting here from my workplace on occasion. Or even just my outspoken political views (though I hope I won't have to work in a place where this matters). How do any of you feel about it? I know that some of you have some pretty strange gimmicks that insiders know to be nonsense, but that would look strange to outsiders. Say, Alo's "sniping". TM's tentacle thing. Someone (forget who) wasn't making a big deal of his habit of free-riding on WLAN access points. Others have told of drinking binges or recreational drugs. I wonder if everyone here is relying on an illusion of anonymity. In some cases, it definitely is an illusion - I can connect my last name to this forum within 15 minutes on Google... -------------------- Encyclopaedia Ermariana • Forum Archives • Forum Statistics • RSS [Topic / Forum] My Blog • Polaris • I eat novels for breakfast.

The only thing it's really good at pulling up are pictures of guns. Someone else may have had other success though. In my experience internet searching is a skill. You have to know what keywords to pick, what to exclude, where to use quotes and so on. If you can't do it, then finding things with any search engine is a matter of luck.
