5、Ever Googled yourself and found someone who has your name-and a very different life? You’ve just met your Googleganger.
Eve Fairbanks is a student at Yale University. Her name appeared on a few X-rated sites when her mother had Googled her out of curiosity. But that Eve Fairbanks wasn’t her Eve-it was a “Googleganger”, a virtual(虛擬的)or real person with the same name.
Much like the verb “to Google” has become as familiar in our everyday language as “to search,” the term “Googleganger” has also caught on with a generation of people judged not so much by their accomplishments but by how Google-able those accomplishments are.
“You are who you are because of Google,” says Matthew Slutsky, 26 a political blogger who has befriended his own Googleganger on Facebook(大學(xué)生網(wǎng)絡(luò)社區(qū)).
For some, your Googleganger is your rival in a race to the top of the Google hit list. It can also be a source of comparison. For others, a Googleganger is a lifelong irritant(刺激劑).
Minnesota IT consultant Robert Fischer was 10 years old when “Searching for Bobby Fischer” the 1993 movie about a great chess talent, came out. It made things awkward at home-Robert’s grandfather was training him to be a chess champ, too! “And here was some kid who was younger and better than I’d ever be,” he says. And now it’s dashing his hopes of upping his Google rank.
At least he doesn’t share his name with a porn(色情)star. Fairbanks got lucky in the end. Her name was remove from the sites, thanks to Google’s support team. And as it turned out, porn-star Eve might not have actually existed: her name, Google told our Eve, might have been created as a marketing means to drive more traffic to the porn sites.
