Discovered this evening that I was quoted in a Wall Street Journal article on online presence and the job hunt tonight, by way of an email from the gentleman behind ClaimID. ClaimID looks like an interesting idea-basically give people tools to manage their online identity. I’m curious to play with their beta (which they are accepting emails addresses for) when they release it. Tangentially, a comment at Paul Kedrosky’s excellent Infectious Greed (he was quoted in the same story) pointed at the totally amusing egosurf.org- they give you points for google results that reference your home page or other potentially related content. Gives you an RSS feed too, in case you need to know on a regular basis exactly how egotastic you are…
