Subprime won the 2007 word of the year, but Googleganger was a runner up, meaning "a person thrown up by a Google search on your name, but who is not you". So I did a search for my own googleganger and found this handsome chap.  Does anyone else want to share?

I do not have a googleganger. I'm unique!

 Genuinely the first picture when you search for my name. Amazing. |

I can imagine Sean's googleganger fitting nicely on the back of Bungle's bike, before going dogging with [James]'s pair.

This causes problems for me too. The only other person in the whole world called Jodi Head is this woman (LEFT) who makes guitar straps and owns the .com domain:  And it isn't even her birth name (believe me I have found out)! She once had a go at me for trading under the Jodi Head name so I had to explain her the UK law and that I was born that way (unlike her). Plus my surname just throws up loads of "head" shots of people called Jodi. Bah! |

There are people in googleland with the same name as me, just no pictures of them. Here is a drawing done by one of my googlegangers and someone else.  |

 No Googleganger for me i'm afraid, all i could find was someone with the same surname who makes theses...things. |

I have two prominent ones - an author of various welsh dictionaries and welsh language books, and a Rugby player for Neath, a team which seems to be made up of about 50% Gareths. I could only find a picture of one of my googlegangers:  He's the author. |

Apart from loads of images by a modern artist I share a name with I managed to find this sexy beast.  He is the far left. |

Xeno and Nurse, you have quite nice ones. in fact, I think I probably would.
Would either of you like to swap?

You could have all of Xeno's, and Dunkley's, and have yourself a googleganger gang bang.

I think you're the one on the right, but your googleganger is the one on the left.
