  Anthony, if it's the first time you think about that your online identity is probably more important than yourself- i am happy for you, you live in a pacific word!
  
  the guys like myself who's social life online makes a very big part of the life in general, have no choice but to care about their Digital Identity. i use and highly recommend to you SPOCK.COM, as People Search Engine, Social Network and an easy to use tool to manage and CHANGE if needed, your web/ web 2.0 reputation.
  
  try it and you'll see there is no need to fear of what the web knows about you, if you control it!

  It's a tough question. On one hand, I don't really feel as though I have anything to hide, but on the other hand, I don't know how other people (read: potential employers) would react to things that I think are pretty benign. The worst thing that my blog and Facebook page say about me are that I swear a lot and drink more than I should. No big deal to me, but it may be to someone else.
  
  For the most part, I tend to accept that it's just part of our new world. I think it may eventually make people a little more careful of what they do and say when someone has a camera out or what they put online, but I also think that, because of less privacy, we're becoming better able to shrug the personal choices that people make that don't affect us.

  There's a problem with the fact that employers google people. It's very easy to post something that looks like it was from me, and many people share my name. I'm pretty happy with what you find on google when you search for me...
  
  ..all except for an article about a guy with my name who got into a drunken motorcycle accident. Can I be confident that people who spot that article will check and see that this guy is 6 years older than me? I doubt it. But my hands are tied.
