Googled my user name and was astonished to discover NO REFERENCE WHATSOEVER to the famous Centralian philosopher/astronomer and his two companion dogs, although there was a bit of talk about the "brightest star in the heavens" so that might have been a reference to me.
Googling my real name gave me a reference to a commander of the Irish forces in the Great Uprising of 1641 who laid seige to the town and castle of Strabane and who apparently treated the resulting prisoners with great fairness and decency.
I found another reference as the name of a black transexual murder victim in the States. (Not sure I needed to know that one.)
The most intresting one of all was to a prisoner in the First Fleet to Australia. His name was the same as mine and he was on board the good ship Sirius.

I had lots of cool names in mind but forgot them all the time so I had to resort to something I could not forget but because I lucked onto it being unique ..there is no other it seems except for this kid who uses it on utube it gives me like a personal list of places I have said something in...I use it if I want to go someplace I am a member as well.
But isnt goggle such a neat thing the stuff you can find out about go inside a reactor inside nasa so much neat stuff...

Must admit Kev I didn't think it was real nice either, especially since he was keen enough to directly use my post here as information on his own site.

I went searching for an email address on his site somewhere to drop him a line - guess what? No visible email address anywhere!

I can tell you one thing, I won't be using his software any time soon!

----------------------------------------------------------------------
I've also googled my real name and found that worldwide in my other personas I:

Race Stock Cars in the U.S.

Am a well known (former) member of the All Blacks
(Me, playing Union, and for NZ?? Not in this lifetime!)

I am also several Doctors around the world, each apparently with different specialisations.

I'm a Sound Engineer, and owner of my own sound gear manufacturing company.

Sadly, I am not an astronaut, a professional astronomer, or a millionaire
(not that I can find, anyway)

When I did my username I came up with lots of refs to a certain song by a certain band, so no surprises there.

It is also the title of a dodgy-sounding book and the user name of "Christobelle, Professional Astrologer and Psychic Counsellor...." (oh dear). I also found that "Spiritual Consciousness for this level and beyond - Astral Traveler is Danyel Seagan's Vision of the Possible Human in a Multidimensional Universe." (wanker). Furthermore, "Astrid's adventure as Astral Traveller (the nomad's Star) will solve biggest mysteries the world that now is insoluble in fact all flowed to one problem, that is Atlantis! Humankind not the descendants of the Monkey!" (though the author may be).

All that impressed me a great deal so I tried my real name and found that I'm variously an actor, computer programmer and a car yard. So I tried my full name and found that 'I' was "A pioneer of the Edsac computer at Cambridge who helped to develop the second generation of a programming language called Assembly Language, assembler.

Long before there was object-oriented programming, he created the closed subroutine, which enabled segments of code to be written independently of the main application flow and called as needed.

He worked on the original EDSAC computer and wrote the first computer program ever to be stored in a computer's working memory. He pioneered the use of sub-routines and is particularly remembered for his work on data compression."

That made me feel better but then I remembered a newspaper story I saw years ago. Apparently someone with my exact name was apprehended pushing a shopping trolley of VCRs down the street. When questioned he explained that he was just minding them for friends, though he had forgotten who. The case went to court but was dismissed as the crown could not prove that the items were stolen.

Is there a moral here? I hope not!

I must say, I google myself regularly! Once upon a time, most of the first page was me (I used to post a lot on several programming groups). Last time, I think about half are me. As for my IIS tag, there are a number of companies which use my tag and as a result I am not even on the first page.
