Aggie87 Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 (edited) Just out of curiousity, I did a google image search on my own name (Erik Lundgren). Got a couple of interesting images to come up. ...anyone else get any interesting images when they do a google? PS - None of those are me - dig that guy's hair! Edited June 25, 2004 by Aggie87 Quote
Dan Gould Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 I certainly don't care for this one: (middle name is Jay by the way) Quote
Alexander Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 No images come up when I Google my name, but a whole bunch of articles I've written do. I just saw that my review of Henry Hey's CD is quoted on the Yamaha web site! Seems that Hey is touring with Rod Stewart these days! Quote
Claude Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 I always thought my name was unique, because it consists of a very rare german family name (only one such family in Luxembourg) and a french first name. When I do a web search on my name, I find only references to myself. But in 1997 I received an email by a guy from France who had the same name and found me through a web search. He was from the Alsace region, where it is also very common to have a french first name and a family name of german origin. Another funny thing happened when I first did a web search in 1996 (my first contact with the WWW) was that I found my name on an online "black list" of a local danish group of the Hell's Angels In fact at that time I was participating in a working group on EU design protection which studied the issue of protecting the design of spare parts for cars, motorbikes etc. The bike rockers feared that this would increase the price of spare parts for their beloved machines and asked their members to send letters to the persons on the list (I didn't receive any).

Rooster_Ties Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 (edited) Dan, it isn't just you. Yikes!! edit: Just realized that this dead guy's first and middle name (or "nickname") are the same as my first and last name. Still, it was one of the first search hits.

Aggie87 Posted June 25, 2004 Author Report Posted June 25, 2004 (edited) Alexander - You sure you're doing a Google Image search? And this guy has claimed "my" website - Erik Lundgren's website At least he likes jazz and bicycles! And he has some noble goals: * The development of civilisation * Harmony * The joy of life * Strengthening creativity * Promotion of world curiosity Edited June 25, 2004 by Aggie87 Quote

jazzbo Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 Ah. . .finding your name links to an actor portraying a soap opera vampire! Priceless! Quote
RDK Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 Same deal as Alexander. Only picture links are to articles I've written. There are, of course, a ton of references to other Rays... Quote
sheldonm Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 I, apparently am a photographer (true) and a famous, gay porn star (....uh...not true). Quote
Dan Gould Posted June 25, 2004 Report Posted June 25, 2004 So Claude's an ugly baby that grew up to be a frighteningly muscled female body builder? Quote
Aggie87 Posted June 25, 2004 Author Report Posted June 25, 2004 I think Claude needs to buy a larger swimsuit! We have a word for that condition down here in South Texas - "pulpe" (not sure if I'm spelling that right)... Quote
