how popular are you?

fwgx · 27th January 2003, 10:49

How many results do you get when you search for "your user name" in google? How many are actually things about you specifically?
don't forget the "" so it searches for your name exactly as it is.

I got 9. All are to do with me personally too

. Mainly from these forums but some from elsewhere.

Mr Jones · 27th January 2003, 10:55

157000 Mr Jones entries

, only one of the first page of google was about me, user profile at 1001winampskins, however...

Jones Owns , my user profile on the Winamp.com skins database, provides 1020 matches, a fair few of them link back to skins I have published here.

Kalervo Manni · 27th January 2003, 11:59

214 results.

binary hero · 27th January 2003, 12:56

Results 1 - 10 of about 55,500.

it's because i'm also some toy

Atmo · 27th January 2003, 14:14

Searched the web for atmo. Results 1 - 10 of about 117,000

zootm · 27th January 2003, 14:16

132 matches. many here, a few from livejournal etc.

also a considerable number of Zoo(TM)s, and some gay porn

- i don't know nothing, honest!

...and of course, the obligatory "did you mean to type zoom?"

Xerxes · 27th January 2003, 14:18

I get millions of entries, not only due to my nick's historical significance, but also because of it appearing in some dumb playstation game.

Mr Jones · 27th January 2003, 14:22

X, once upon a time, typing Xerxes into a serch engine used to bring up some amateur porn site, Xerxes and Lottie or some such nonsense, German swingers they were, I think he changed his name however the last time I looked

Merlin · 27th January 2003, 14:54

"Searched the web for Merlin. Results 1 - 10 of about 1,670,000."

Damned if I'm going to look through that lot for ones relating to me.

Orgone_Man · 27th January 2003, 16:05

I just got three. So that means I got last place in popularity, but 1st in originality.

Vie · 27th January 2003, 16:08

10,200,000

almost all of them French.

AngelPHiSH · 27th January 2003, 16:45

114. Half of which actually had something to do with me. *hides*

SemiTechGeek · 27th January 2003, 17:13

I got only two links and they are for the winamp forums

neonmole · 27th January 2003, 17:25

I got 109 results and none of them were to do with me so I guess no-one loves me!!

Jedi Gemstone · 27th January 2003, 17:29

OMG Yeay I got stuff about me on it

I gots 6 look 6 pages!
And it mentions my birthday

Mrs_Mia_Wallace · 27th January 2003, 17:49

I got 5. One of them is from me at Winamp. I was surprised not to see more up there since my name is also a "Pulp ficiton" character.

cooky560 · 27th January 2003, 17:59

1,270,000 entries, i can't be arsed 2 sift through them

fwgx · 27th January 2003, 18:30

You mean 2 right?

Jedi Gemstone · 27th January 2003, 18:34

Now I've got 11

Russ · 27th January 2003, 18:37

2,340,000.... but to be fair this isn't my original forums name, "Russ" was unavailable when I registered, but I got the original Russ nuked because he only posted once in 2 years... what a waste of a decent name

.

Searching for my original nick, russgarrett yeilds 85 results, and all of the first page are me... you could probably tell a great deal about my life from that

. It also asks you meant my actual name, which is kind of it.

Results 1 - 10 of about 96. Search took 0.16 seconds.

Most of them are from these forums and other sites that have my smilies on them.

[edit]
Hmm... It says there's 96 entries, but when I checked, there's only 15.

[/edit]

eleet-2k2 · 28th January 2003, 00:52
