Out of sheer curiousity and pure masochism, I googled a name of someone I used to know and a heap of information poured out. There it was for all and sundry to see - his full name, on a personals site. Actually, several personal sites. If my glass were half full, it depicts him as a lonely, lonely single who loves photography.
Granted, nothing horrific: no alcohol abuse, no expletives, or drag outfits.
Still.
A while back, I had been motivated to minimise my digital footprint after L.L did a quick search and found some information about me. This massive clean up involved deleting all of the following: several online journals, social networking sites-myspace and friendster as well as selectively editing articles with sensitive information.
What is your digital footprint like?
