Searching myself (or lack of virtual existence)

Have you guys ever tried to look for your own names on google or any of those search-websites?
A friend of mine once told me: if something cannot be found on google, so this something doesn't really exist! So everytime I need to find out about something, I do some research on google.
Nopes, I still didn't get any sponsorship from google or from any of the international companies I mention on my posts... I should stop making free spread of big companies and just say things like "that big blue G search website"...
Let's get back to the topic. I always do my research on "that big blue G search website" and one day I had a brilliant and original idea: what if I searched for my name?!
I know. The idea isin't brilliant or even original at all! Everybody has done it before... Who told you I would be brilliant or original?!
Anyways, I searched for myself on the net, but I didn't get too many things. There were only 2 pages about other girls with the same name. I found out there is a dentist, a state agent (realtor), a civil engineer, a librarian, and there is also me!
My appearence on the search isn't interesting or amazing (maybe because my life and myself aren't interesting or amazing). There are three links regarding me: a) one shows my classification to get into Law School; b) another link makes reference about my final paper at college; and c) another site says I failed one exam. Isin't this nice? We failed the exam and then it is published online... LOL...
I spent a couple of minutes looking at the search about myself and its results.
There is nothing about me besides those 3 minor references, and it means that I almost don't exist! At least virtually speaking.
I have this blog, I have a 'myspace account' (that I don't use), I have an album of pictures at yahoo, I have a wishlist and I have uploaded some videos at my youtube account, but even then I almost virtually don't exist... Come on, I thought "that big blue G search website" was going to unify searches regarding its three main domains (google, youtube, and orkut)! Humpf!
I needed to think about something to solve my lack of virtual existence! I might almost don't exist on internet, but that doesn't stop me to keep using my sick-crazy mind on real world! If internet is conspiring against my online existence, I need to stand against it and show the world that I exist!
Did I say I only use my sick-crazy mind for useless things? He he he...
Since the gentlemen of "that big blue G search website" don't want to help me, I decided to look for help somewhere else...
Which other site I use for searches? Wikipedia!!!!!! So I created an account at wikipedia (yes, one more internet account!) and decided to officially be born online! I made an article about myself at wikipedia and there I was: a new online life has born!
However, things are not that easy when the virtual world is really conspiring against me!
I got a message from wikipedia administrator telling me the article I created "seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time."
So, the article about myself was deleted because I am not significant for the world!!!! I hope I won't need analysis after that, because I would send the doctor's bills for the same person who deleted my article! Who this person think he/she is?! Btw, doesn't this person has something better to do than telling others that their lives are insignificant for the world?!
Anyways, my online life was interrupted. I was drastically killed on my own online birthday. Should I quit about being someone online or should I keep fighting against the system?
Do I need to tell you the answer? He he he he...
I came back at wikipedia and found another way to register my existence. Wanna play a game? Search on wikipedia about relevant facts that took place on September 8th and on the year of 1982, and then try to find this brazilian/portuguese girl there ;-)
Let's see if I can get past wikipedia's administration and remain virtually alive!
There is only one negative point about this whole thing: wikipedia articles don't appear when we make searches on "that big blue G search website"... :-(
It is not a problem, I am fine with that and the truth is that I can perfectly live without any online existence! Btw, now it is time to search for some friends on "that big blue G search website" ;-)
Have fun and keep rocking!
Love you all!!

OMG !!! I was thinking of having a Wikipedia article about myself also :-)

Thr is a guy who created a fake identity for himself and soon he found many websites quoting his wikipedia page and some imaginary books he had supposedly written coz he was meant to be a expert on genetics :-))

Later he got calls from universities in abroad to come and give lectures! !!! hehehhe..

The power of perception.. :-)

The guys at wikipedia deleted me again.

I did something similar with a friend of mine and his bday is still there, but I guess wikipedia people were aware of deleting any information abt me...

Is the world conspiring against me or just wikipedia?! LOL
