Your Google Reputation

With the success of the Google search engine, people are now using it to not just to research their next purchase or for information about the world around them. They are now googling people they are thinking about hiring, giving loans to, being friends with and maybe even going on a trip with.

This has led to the new phenomena of personal branding on the internet. How well are you promoting yourself in cyberspace? It is now very possible that headhunters will be "digging" into your job history and achievements on google rather than from your resume. And your online activity may just become your work references...

I read somewhere the other day that one of the ways to build up points if you're in the "creative" or "innovative" fields is to start a blog. My question is - do you ever finish a blog?
