data-mining
Apr. 24th, 2012 10:40 amMost of my online activity is in the name of my online identity, as it were. I do have one account in the name of my meatspace identity, originally for job-hunting purposes. I find it interesting that in its efforts to work out who I know, that social network site is now asking me if I know X and Y, where X and Y are the meatspace names of
glitterboy1 and
esmeraldus_neo.
There are a handful of people on my account I know through fannish connections, so I suspect that it's a 2nd/3rd order link via those people. But I had to think about it to work out where the connections were coming from...
