It shocks me to see how many people say "well i'm good because i just don't have ANYTHING online." Your right about the fact that there is likely something out there weather they know it or not but the more important point is the fact that people (employers, clients, colleagues etc.) expect to find something when they look for you and when they find nothing that is a statement in and of itself.

No body is stopping you from posting articles slamming the government and promoting anarchy. It IS a free country. Just don't be surprised when an employer does a double take when the first thing associated with your name is an article discussing the merits of 9/11 conspiracy. <br><br>The internet hasn't changed this dynamic. You wouldn't walk into an interview and introduce yourself with radical ideas. Google is now your first impression, so know everything you post is public, and act accordingly. Great article, Walt.

You can actually create two lists, one public and one private, useful if you want to use Amazon as a gift registry while retaining your own private "someday" list. To go private, sign into your account, click on your wish list (even if you have not created one yet) and change the default setting.
