Are you an Internet Star ?

katex · 21-10-2007, 22:26

Son recently joked that he was now an Internet Star.

Googled his name, and lo and behold, three entries, mostly to do with papers he has presented and profile of him in his 'trade' magazine.. wow, I have produced a new age star !!..

Decided to have fun with this .. the only fame to claim I have, seems to be that I attended an Exhibition in London and states the dates I would be attending (through our company website I suspect).

Discovered daughter had written to a National Newspaper re. tax credits.

Found grandaughter on MySpace.

Gayle, of course, through her work with mid-pennine and own website.

Don't know many of your 'proper' names or would be investigating you. LOL.

Do you come up with googling ?

I had a go and like you said, mpa, own website, photo in LET, and election info - not a bad haul. Unfortunately the top one - the author - is not me. She lives in america and has written a book about a cat called Sassy. I have recently been given a copy of it so I'll let you know if my namesake is doing our name proud when I've read it.

The Jigsaw Man, 21 Jun 2004
By shanida sillitoe - See all my reviews

when i bought this book i didnt know what to expect, ive always been interested in criminal psychology and wanted to study criminology at college,this book takes you into the mind of its author and recreates the images that he saw when he attended the crime scenes. It takes you through some of the most horrific and well known crimes to date,looking at the psychology of the criminal mind.
this is an excellent book and i would recommend it to anyone.

This sounds more like me but isn't.

I don't think I would have a hope of finding the real me on the internet with having a common surname... on the first page alone ... I am a historian, photographer, journalist, games reviewer and a IT buff!!

Hmm come on then people does that sound like me???

As for harwood red - it comes up accyweb and I have a reputation beyond repute
