KEEPING TABS ON YOURSELF ON THE INTERNET

I type my complete performance name in quotes in the Google search engine: 
"Krispen Hartung", plus the words "music", "looping", your instrument, 
etc. 
Try various combinations.  Otherwise, it finds all sorts of pages with 
just 
"Hartung" in them"....not a lot of "Krispen's" I'm afraid. :)  Then I do 
the 
same in the Google Groups search box.  It's a good way to keep tabs on 
yourself, or boost your ego..one of the two.

Example: "Krispen Hartung"  looping yields 1230 pages

Try it yourself with various secondary phrases and see what you come up 
with. It's sort of fun. I find new articles all of the time that I had no 
knowlege of being published.

Here is another cool trick. Go to Google News 
(http://news.google.com/nwshp?hl=en&tab=wn&q= ), type in your name, and 
then 
click "Get the latest news on Krispen-Hartung looping with Google Alerts". 
You can select News, Web, or Both (I do both), and each time a new news 
article or web page appears on the internet with your name on it, you will 
get an alert in your email.

Examples:
