skymama 37 #1 September 27, 2006 I just had this conversation with a friend. She told me she Googles everyone and actually just didn't hire a babysitter because of what she saw on her MySpace account. She thinks I should do it too. Anyone not go out with someone because of what they found out about them on the internet?She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not me b/c I don't date, but my wife's friend does it and actually caught her sister's husband cheating on someone... she saw that he was "advertising" on an on-line dating site and somehow it all went downhill from there.

TheGirlWonder 0 #16 September 27, 2006 Yes yes, and yes... I google every guy I date or hook up with (in my wild days) to find out the dirt, and have uncovered wonderful things... to date, the best discoveries have been: - Vegas stripper - Soap Opera star - Convicted of a federal crime for drug trafficking My roommates and I used to joke and say that a guy wasnt worth dating if he couldnt be googled Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

eeneR 3 #18 September 27, 2006 Just as an FYI...google and yahoo will infact show different results sometimes . Also you may have to go a few pages in to find some of it as well. Yes I do look, cause my opinion is this, if they are dumb enough to post a shit ton of personal shit that could be used against them, well then that wont work for me I always do a search for myself to see what is actually out there.

sharimcm 0 #19 September 27, 2006 I googled the police officer I'm dating. All it came up with is he's a police officer. But, I googled after I already went out with him, so I guess that doesn't count because he wasn't potential.. Ok, I'll shut up now.

A ton of people do not get the jobs because what was found on the web... Yah Ive heard that alot recently. My roommate just did some hiring at her job and searched for myspace pages on every candidate. At the very least, if you have crazy stuff on your page, dont be dumb enough to list your first and last name so that just anyone can find you. Fortunatly I dont think I have anything on my page that is TOO scandalous. Not that it matters... I have a big mouth and the people I work with already know whatever crazy things I do Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
