Do you have an online namesake? I have one who makes cool, if rather angry, postage-stamp art.
Yes I do, but good luck figuring out what the hell's going on there.

I apparently am a young girl with a birdie on her head.

Janetland: running the text in the body of that page through automatic translation results in the following:

[ main page ] - here you now are located.
[ about itself ] - information about me (but will suddenly by whom be necessary;))).
[ works ] - we frolic, you understand, by verses and by stories.
[ my familiar ] - about my good familiar.
[ links ] - my most dear net knots.
[ Forum ] - The long-awaited Forum.

yup

A google of sciurus has my MeFi profile and my flickr profile on the first page of results!

Damn, it's just like MetaChat!

I used to be essexjan on eBay, but this guy I work with emailed me once when I was actually on holiday in the US, demanding to know what something was that I'd bought. I found it incredibly intrusive, so I changed my user name.

There's now another essexjan on eBay (they must allow people to take old names once they've been out of use for a while) and this guy at work made some comment about how I'd sent him a snotty email, which turned out to be from her, after he'd quizzed her about something she'd bought, thinking it was me.

my real name - a farmer in Ireland.

my online name - there are too many and they are often quicker signing up for online services than i am. on these occasions i often use barkingstars which also happens to be the name of some german dog trainers who provide mutts for movies (i got the name from a maria mckee song cos i'm strange like that)

There's a journalist with my real name that takes up the first few google results. I'm really grateful for that, actually. I'd consider giving her the dotcom if she wanted it. Her work is pretty solid. hahaha.

As to my username. Up until a couple years I pretty much had that covered because I have the dotcom and used it on mefi, etc. But then these damn kids with their lj, myspace, friendster, etc. I mostly think it's funny. I mean, I ripped it from an episode of BtVS so it wasn't an original idea on my part. The more the merrier.

Google image search for pieisexactlythree yields, among other things, a picture of jonmc!

No one with my username, but there is someone with my real name.

Mine makes elevators.

Yup and he's way cleverer and much more creative than me. A Google search reveals a surprising number of people in Australia with the same name as me working in roughly the same industry, which I find fascinating for no particular reason.

Well...
Apparantly there's a bunch of us lusty RedVixens, and we're world wide! I did find my photos and a MetaChat recipe, though. But not on the first page.

Deborah by itself is a hospital and deborahclarke.com belongs to a singer from the UK. The .ca and everything except .com seem to be available. I'd buy it but since I already own silverbees.com and I'm not using it, I don't see the point plus .ca addresses are more expensive than .com. Weird.
