You're So Vain...

you probably think this post is about you?

Carly Simon aside, today I decided to do a Google vanity search.

I'm not going to lie, I've done it many times before, but since we talked about it in class last week I realized it had been awhile. Also, since I've been doing that whole 'real-world job search fun' lately, I figured it certainly wouldn't hurt to check out the online scene.

It was somewhat exciting to see what things were actually there. The WFHS directory and Latino students of distinction had been there for awhile but it brought up a new lot of sites, mostly those related to classes. This blog came up, as well as the links to one of my other class' website.

What I didn't like is that that particulary website lists my cell number. Alas, until the class is over or I speak directly to that professor, I guess I'll deal with it. It's interesting to try and interpret what someone would determine about you based on your Google search. But since, so far, we just know I graduated from high school and have been awarded through UD for good grades, I hopefully shouldn't have to be concerned.
