is being ungooglable the next “big thing” ?

Very interesting post in Wired News about being “ungooglable.” Wonder what my students will think of all this google.

Also, Michael Joyce’s web page, announces “Michael Joyce is no longer maintaining a public web presence.” Of course, he goes on to provide a bunch of links and even a CV that includes an email address, an office address, and an office phone number. In other words, Joyce’s “lack” of a web presence is significantly greater than the web presence of most of people I know.

Personally, I don’t mind when people find me via a Google search. I don’t see what the problem is. I do understand the privacy issues and I agree that there are some things about me that I don’t want to be out there for one and all to see, but go ahead and read my blogs, look at my class pages, etc. I get inspired from others, why would I also not participate in the shared community?
