Ok, so I have an ego

Google, which sooner or later will own everything in the media, started its controversial Google Print service today, allowing you to search the full text of many books. So what did I do ... search for my name. There were more references to Wesley Snipes character of the same name in the movie Passenger 57 than to me, but I did show up in a journalism book pontificating on the age beat. The Journalists Exchange on Aging makes a respectable showing here and there, as does our own Paul Kleyman. Set aside your copyright concerns for a few minues and try it at http://print.google.com/print?hl=en ... (From a practical standpoint, it could be a way to check on what some source wrote or said in print.)
