Please answer today's question on your own blog, any time until next weekend. Just link to this blog (or to this post) so I can follow the progress of the discussion.
And the question is: Have you ever Googled yourself?
I cannot figure out how to make a link in the midst of a post, even with some directions from JB in Mainz and Marie in Montpellier. I tried and tried, then gave up. Maybe when one of my younger, computer-savvy friends visits in person, I can find out what I'm doing wrong.
So, I won't be in the discussion, but the answer is yes!
I think this is one I can do if I don't forget. I'm adding you to the Friday Sky Watch blog roll. I know you'll have some beautiful pictures! Oh that iris is just gorgeous!
I have a very common name so the uninteresting answer to that, that isn't worth blogging about unfortunately is that I have and went through about 6 pages of links without getting to a single thing about me.
@ LYNETTE and Christ: I learned how to put HTML links into texts from this website.
The most simple one is explained under the heading "The Anchor Tag and the Href Attribute".
I like to use the one under the heading "The Target Attribute", because it opens a new page, meaning your reader does not leave your blog when he/she hits the link, only opens a new page:
This should be interesting! Could you perhaps put up the numbers of yes and no responses on your blog when it's over? I'd think the vast majority would be yes.
Yes, I just now goggled myself. And low and behold you came up. For I too am a "Dave McMahon". Born and raised in Ontario, Canada. Have a great day, your parents choice of names was wonderful.

I'm afraid to answer this question. It might cause be to be labelled Self-Obssessed.

Mine's up now.
ReplyDeleteHee hee, that was fun.
This should be interesting! Could you perhaps put up the numbers of yes and no responses on your blog when it's over? I'd think the vast majority would be yes.
ReplyDeleteWhy, doesn't everyone want to be famous?
Yes, I have googled but only very recently .. that too for doing a tag which I'll try to put up before the weekend (If I remember it).
ReplyDeleteHi David
ReplyDeleteMy offering http://themaxefiles.blogspot.com/2007/10/have-you-ever-googled-yourself.html
Are you kidding!? Like a million times. For one thing, I have been a journalist for years. I like to look up some of the stories I've written.
ReplyDeleteThis is the downside of not writing under your own name. Ya can't google yourself. But I have Googled my site maaaaaaany times:)
ReplyDeleteYes, I have but I didn't exist! That scares me!!!
