Who Am I? Google Knows.

Let's get all existential for a moment. Who are you? Who am I? Who are any of us? If you really want to know, and you don't know where to start, what do you do? You Google it.

Researching a public figure? You Google them. Interviewing a job candidate? Google them. Trying to find out who that guy is that keeps writing nasty comments on your blog? Google him too. Of course, what Google might return when searching for your name doesn't necessary indicate who you are, or what you do. But that's likely to change as Google moves further into people search.
