Spock

I think by now, most of you have heard about Spock. I read a bit about it a few months back and went ahead and signed up.

Spock is a search application for People. Not just celebrities either–anyone online can theoretically be found on Spock. Spock provides relevant tags, related people, up to date news, and links to any and everywhere this person is mentioned online.

I did a quick search for the writer’s strike and immediately came up with BJ Novak and Mindy Kaling, two hyphenates (writer-actors) from The Office.

I haven’t ‘claimed’ all the links to myself just yet (Myspace page, Facebook, blogs, site profiles, etc) but you can be certain I intend to. By doing so, I can make sure I’m linked properly.

I want to work on Ryan’s info as well. His search only shows info from his Myspace page and well, he’s only logged into Myspace a handful of times.

We all ’stalk’ people via the internet. That’s half of why all these social networking sites become so popular. Spock has been added to my list of stops to look for the goods on someone, or just to find someone I want to catch up with. I remember when I first met Ryan, I looked all over the place for info about him–just anything to have a decent conversation starter. At the time, I had no clue how to spell his last name, but I bet anything I could’ve used my spy skills to locate him on Spock via all the related tags!

And I’m gonna need Mr. Fabulous to go ahead and claim himself on there. The results are a little sad without his colorful world showing up!

Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to spend a few hours looking through all these links they have for Johnny Depp.
