Google Alert included my Twitter Post!

Talk about weird!

I am signed up for several topics on Google Alerts in order to stay on top of news and posting for a couple of topics.  Not to sound paranoid (the black helicopter guys can tell when I'm being paranoid), but I am subscribed for news and blog posts about "Michael Fontana". 

Google Web Alert for: "Michael Fontana"

One never knows what you will find out about yourself, like when Michael Fontana, former Austin Paramedic, and Nurse was arrested due to several deaths that happened under suspicious circumstances for patients in his care. But I digress...

Today, I received an email for updates on Michael Fontana.  One was about the Nurse, the other two were about little old me!  I had posted a status update last night regarding my tinkering with Hulu Desktop, my laptop, and our TV.  It worked great by the way, but that's another post.  (There's also a comment I made about iPhone, but it's essentially the same story)

I clicked on the link in the Google Alert, and it brought me to this page.

The Stage Coach's Tweet from Google Alerts

 

Point of my story - looks like some one is now officially watching our Twittering.  So, use your head and don't put any thing out there that you don't want to become public knowledge!  Back to paranoia: I use Google Alerts to be updated if I am praised [or put down...see paranoia comments] by clients, REA's, etc.  If you bad talk a competitor on Twitter, it could be easily found!

Now, back to coating the office with Aluminum foil...

Interesting Michael.  I like google alerts but I find they are coming too fast to keep up with.  I probably should pair them down a little.
