Poser - OFFICIAL F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 May 28 2:13 pm)
Subject: OT: Have your ran your screen name through a search engine lately?
LOL, actually I was doing that yesterday! Checked mine and several others from here out of curiousity...ok... I was being really nosey! LOL
Since my name comes from a snippet of Canadian History searching for "Acadia" gives hundreds of links about the history of the Acadians. In order to find me you have to enter "Acadia+Poser"

I learned that 'Paloth' is a last name in India. Also, it looks like someone seized the domain name "Paloth.com" but dropped it.

If you run my screen name through Google, you get a LOT of links to Shared Virtual Disk Library, and to some obscure programming language.

When I google my ava name, all that turns up is me =)
My nickname started a few years back when I was in the UK, My first name is very hard to speak out in English so they started to call me Jester.
After that, a girlfriend of mine started to call me Jestertjuuh witch came out handy since Jester is used a lot as nickname on forums.
Did a litle search on my real last name a few weeks ago and found out where it originates from, that was a interesting discovery.
My last name is rare, and the family tree I found with it is my actual family throu out history.
I am not a complete idiot, some
parts are missing :)

wow...I'm actually in Google. Last entry on the 1st page is my 2,000 or so entry database of web sites for Poser, Bryce, etc..;) Thank you, Trekkie Grrrl..;)
I don't even show up until Page 2...;) I know there's a Japanese Pakled, because I had to become Pakled05 to get into a couple of sites.
But there's lots about us Pakleds, and how smart we're not...;)

Not much on me except that my user name comes under two graphic websites. Most entries relate to my posts here and at Daz.
There's no point in even googling for 'ockham', since it's an alternative
spelling for Occam. But the name I use on my blog and elsewhere
(Polistra) is nearly unique. Googling it now will yield several of my blog
entries, but at the time when I chose it, there was only one entry for it.

4 pages???
Fascinating, when I Googled myself I found out that one of my freebies was posted on a site that I don't belong to.[ Ain't it a pity that I changed my storage site so thelink on ripped off one is no longer valid? ]

I guess this means I'm officially "somebody" in the Poser community :scared:
And I show up as part of the groups I belong too, plus there are a few entries related to images people did using,my freebies :)
I already know that I have a doppelganger, there's a real estate agent in Arizona that has the same name I do. And she's about my age.

Whatever3D is a search database for Poser. You can find both free and commercial items on it.
Unfortunately their database most often links directly to the freebie, giving the illusion that the site is hosting it, but it isn't. It's just a place to enter key words when searching for items.

In the first couple years that I used the web, I kept running into
references to my great-grandfather (my namesake) while searching
for all sorts of completely unrelated things. He wasn't famous at all;
but for some reason many of the words or topics I looked up would
lead to genealogy pages including his name. This stopped
after a while ... probably because genealogy was among the
first heavy uses of the web, and other things quickly drowned
out the family trees.

A lot of the commercial sites like eBay pay the big search engines to plug in anyword to lead to their sites. It's a pain in the arse. I try looking up something like a graphics card or how to fix something and all roads lead to Ebay or some other shopping site - even if they have nothing available at all.

Run my name - the real one and any variant of my online name - through almost any search engine and you'll get hundreds of hits.
They even named a road after me. How cool is that?

Quote - wow...I guess I'll think two or three times before posting to a political blog again. Creepy.
haha! The other day I was being snoopy and decided to run some of the more unique user names in google. I found that some people post on some very, well, let's just say ... "interesting" ... forums :blink: 
I like my privacy ... sort of... so while I do post on other non graphic related forums, I learned to choose different user names to protect that privacy. So I pick a different user name for each forum. The reason I do that is so that if some crazed sicko (and believe me I have run into some real mentally unstable people on the internet) from one community decides to google my name, they won't be able to follow me around the internet and cause me grief :)
Acadia is my poser related user name and I use it around the Poser community. But it's the only place that I do use it.

Using Google - searching on mrsparky brings up an assortment of things.
One oddity - some of the links are to those iffy "OEM" sites offering to sell my products here at rendo for exactly the same price as here or sometimes even higher !!
Again using google searching on sparkyworld brings up loads of things - though often the first links and often a thumbnail to P2P sites offering my stuff.
The legit links are pretty well placed on google top 3 pages showing all the sites I have stuff on. Yet I've never optimised the meta tags - which I think shows spending to have your site optimised is a waste of cash. Yahoo doesn't tend to show the iffy sites.
Real name - nothing except for one link to a university intranet site.
Pinky - you left the lens cap of your mind on again.
Quote - .... Didn't the Acadian's disappear like Roanoake or something? .....
I google myself but I do have a store with my screen name other than that only finds post almost since I discovered the internet LOL ok not quite but since I created the user name.
ps we didnt dispear ( as acadians) but back over 300 years ago we did get off our land shipped in boats :) But we survived well most anyways lol just had to throw that in there :)
Quote - I once found my boss using his REAL name and company e-mail address at some site called "Wanda's Love Shack" it's gone now and so is he, LOL!
How the heck did he became a boss?
I thought that you needed brains for that :laugh:
Hmmmm, on the other hand, now your mention it.
I know a few people who became a boss, and no one knows how or why :glare:

Nothing fancy when i type my screen name. I find my web site, my entries here and there and in french computer forums. I also found pics some made with my products, and sites that linked my site.
When i type my real name, i find a lot of things in Italy as my name comes from there, but i don't speak a word in italian LOL Of course a lot of genealogy sites are very inclined to help me to know more about my family. As we are only 4 with that name in all France, and all in the same family, i think i know enough about it LOL
Faraway Pictures: Is currently 3rd, 5th and 8th on Google!
FarawayPictures: Currently number 1 on Google!!!
My real name Chris Morse was the last entry on the first page of Google.
My real name pulls up some accomplished poets/writers/artists in Europe, plus a couple of women in high positions in a couple of companies.

Good idea Drifterlee, I found someone using one of my images. It's a french/canadian(?) site and babelfish didn't do a very good job translating for some reason. They had linked to my homepage here at rendo..giving me some sort of credit atleast........however..........they removed my copyright and altered my work. (GRRRR!)
Sent them an email requesting it's removal. I'll give them a week to comply then if not go to their webhost.
Sigh........ :o(

OMG! I used to be a reporter and newspaper editor, so my REAL name used to be all over the US Internet on articles. After five years, my real name has almost disappeared - but "drifterlee" is famous.
Some results (I used www.copernic.com free engine):
"Best place for DRIFTERLEE today"
(ebay) for sale - al your DRIFTERLEE" needs"
"Find out all about DRIFTERLEE today"...
And on and on. I'm not kidding. They just plug in your name. One site wanted me to install some spyware to read what they had on me, LOL!
I did find some stolen art of mine, but since the guy has horses and liked my old "Cowboy's Christmas" pic and left my name on it, I just let him know he should have asked permission and not to do it again. He's in the US, so I can complain, LOL!
