Net Users Try to Elude the Google Grasp. Some people are trying to reduce their electronic presence, and discovering that doing so is not as simple as it would seem. By Jennifer 8. Lee. [New York Times: Technology]
As far as stuff being on the net never going away this has long been a truth, even before things like Google. Google has just made it all the easier. I remember when they first announced having the usenet archives and went back and looked to see if I could figure out my first post. As far as I can tell it was something about a video game I was playing on my Sega Genesis. But that was over a decade ago.
I've been taking another attitude myself. I want to just about own my name on the net. Then I can control it ^_^.
