Whatever you do, DON'T Google your old friends, ever. Unless of course, you don't find this kind of stuff creepy.

Have you tried Google Wave yet? I hear it's really great. Could you send me an invite? [Amanda's Note: I had a total meltdown courtesy of Google Wave at around 5:50 pm. Caveat invitees.]

So basically if Google moved into your apartment he would be a huge creep. Just imagine if Linux moved into your apartment…*shiver*

A tech-savvy Internet-lover's worst nightmare? The curse of the GOOGLEGANGER — or, that person online that shares your name and might even beat you in a Google search. Please enjoy this podcast, featuring a truly priceless rant from Buzzfeed favorite (and Community Manager) Jack Shepherd on his LOST Googleganger. Also, feel free to share any photos or stories of your own despised name twin, if you have one.

2. “You may be familiar with “Jack Shepherd” from the television show Lost. I haven’t watched the program myself, but evidently this asshole is some kind of a heroic doctor with a tragic past, or some other bullshit like that. But regardless of his purported heroism, his doubtless impressive medical abilities, and whatever tribulations he may have experienced in his childhood, this dickhead — with absolutely no regard whatsoever for my feelings — is rendering me almost ungoogleable. There was a time, not so long ago, when this page sat proudly atop the Google listings in a search for “Jack Shepherd.” But this meddling egomaniac has consigned me to the fifth or sixth page of results, where, if I am found at all, it will only be by the truest fans of the real Jack Shepherd.” —Buzzfeed’s Jack Shepherd

Of all the things it could have predicted, Google seems to have really hit the nail on the head this time

A Google employee interviews random passersby in Times Square with a seemingly simple question. Answer: “It's where you put your search terms.” Yes, that is correct. As usual for a Google-made video, the music and production are incredibly cheesy, but the reactions from some of the interviews are good for some laffs, I suppose.

TECH BUZZ: This looks very cool: Google's introducing a new form of online communication called the Wave that sort of combines email, IM, updates and sharing online documents. It's hard to explain in a short space, so you're better off clicking around the links. Not to be all Next Big Thing, but this could be exactly that sort of Thing.

TECH BUZZ: Apparently, web address registrar giant GoDaddy is advising against people buying dot-TV domains, as the island that owns the domain — the island of Tuvalu — is actually sinking. After a bit of research (ie Google), I am not entirely sure whether the island of Tuvalu is actually sinking, but according to GoDaddy owner Bob Parsons, your .tv domains will be safe if the island goes under.

TECH BUZZ: The Twitter rumor du jour: Google is interested in buying. This is a little late and weak for an April Fool's joke, so there's at least a chance it's true. And Tech Crunch says the two are in “late stage” negotiations, which sounds dire.
