Tonight I was cruising through my trusty google feed reader and came across this post on setting up your google profile. It’s really easy and quick to do. You can provide either just enough information or you can provide all kinds of ways for people to find and contact you. For me, I simply gave enough of my online sources (such as my twitter account: @cronan) to allow people to find and connect without giving away my phone numbers to the WWW. You can also use a third party service to verify your identity.

It’s not something that I might have done except that recently I have been connecting with some old friends on facebook. Some of my close pals seem to be more difficult to find. My decision to activate my profile was made once I saw there was another Chris Ronan already there. Don’t know who the imposter is, but I had to throw my profile in the ring too.
