I wouldn't call it sucky (primarily because I am completely incapable of saying anything that could remotely be construed as hurtful), but I'd agree that it isn't one of the better ones we've had here in FB Land.
Anyway, in an effort to be constructive, here's a new poll, triggered by a recent converation with a friend. (This may be a repeat of an older one, but I don't remember.)
Have you ever been tracked down -- presumably by Google -- by someone you lost contact with eons ago? And have you ever Googled an old friend/lover/spouse/crush to contact them (or spy on them, you stalker you)?
Not Bob's answers: About six months ago, I got a call from a friend from my high school days. Not sure if he Googled me or not. He left Podunkville, but I'm still here, and listed in the phone book, so I ain't that hard to find.
As for part 2, I enter the names of all sorts of people (friends, relatives, opposing counsel with goofy names, etc.) into Google all the time while on a boring conference call. So far I have resisted the urge to hire a private detective to take pictures of all of my past loves and crushes. I did send someone an email via the classmates.com service once, as I think I discussed here or at Infirmation. But I didn't go out and get a real email address for her (classmates.com acts as the middleman) or phone number or anything like that. The email via the intermediary was stalker-ish enough.
