Fifteen Seconds of Fame
Not that I'm especially vain, but on occasion I do check how "I" rank in search engines. For a long time, I've been beaten by a like-named tennis player, some guy writing quack science articles, and closely followed by a musician.
Last week, after hearing that Google had again updated its ranking engine, I ran my little test. Bingo! I'm number one. And on Yahoo. And at MSN. Three major search engines, all using different data. I win.

Check it out for yourself (while it lasts):
- "John Keller," as seen by Google
- that yahoo "John Keller" on... Yahoo
- "John Keller," according to MSN
Cool, huh? And oh, so geeky.
