Self Absorbed?

Filed under: by: sknaB nolA

So, for a while now I have used Google Alerts to track all kinds of information and have had an alert for my name. I just want to make sure I am being represented on the WWW ok and if I'm not at least I have a clue and a chance to correct it.

That said I received this yesterday in my inbox:

Linked Data and the Enterprise: a viable two-way street | Paul Miller

... almost certainly without mentioning ‘RDF’, ‘Semantic Web,’ or even ‘Open.’ And if you’re in Southern California next week too, why not come and say ‘Hi’…? ‘Sunrise over San Diego‘ image © Alon Banks, 2007 ...

Interesting....I clicked on it and was pleasantly surprised to see my image on his blog and a proper credit.

If you have a lot of information out on the WWW, I suggest you set up an alert and start tracking what is being said about you, or what is happening with your stuff.

How vain and schizophrenic at the same time; I love IT. I'm so all over that. Aaw. And won't it be sad after like six months, when no one's used my name in vain. There's only one thing worse than being talked about and that's NOT being talked about. :(
