Googling oneself can give some interesting results.
For instance, I found that the “Hovercraft Design Project” I did in my Fluid Mechanics course (Summer 2001) is listed on this Turkish page about “high speed crafts,” though they’ve labeled it as as “ACV-Dizayn.”
Also, I’ve found that a research paper I wrote in my Freshman (high school) English class somehow ended up on textfiles.com. It’s an okay paper, I guess, titled “Celtic Interactions with Other Cultures.” I vaguely remember uploading it to “The Lost Realm” BBS, the SysOp of which had helped me with some details about Druids. I’m not sure how it ended up on textfiles.com, though. Regardless, I’m guessing that these other sites got it from there: beyondweird.com – puts my paper in the same directory with works by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, among others; preterhuman.net; book-of-thoth.com; wiccanet.com.
Lastly, I’m mentioned (not by name, though my brother is) in this article from the Lubbock Avalanche-Journal. I’m one of the “two friends” in this sentence:
Free-speech advocate Chris Myles and two friends organized a feeble counterprotest across the street from Webster and a handful of members of his congregation.
I wonder where else I’ll turn up.
