When asked by Professor Robertson to google ourselves and look what showed up I was very surprised. My Facebook and twitter page popped up along with the link that would take people directly to those pages. Other things that were found were old volleyball team rosters, and time records from my middle school track days. Other then sports, I could only find articles about my school and my involvement with our DECA chapter. When I clicked images, the majority of my Facebook profile pictures showed up. The most interesting part about the images was that some of my close friends pictures popped up as well. It’s crazy to see how much information people can learn about you from just typing your name into Google.
