Googling
Every so often I Google myself, just to see what’s out there on the World Wide Web about me. What I generally discover is historical location photographs that I have taken in the past that are being used (with permission and/or credit) by cultural, historical, religious and encyclopedic websites and online documents.
But occasionally I find something different. And while none of it is too exciting, I did happen across an online article entitled Swiss Girl Meets Steven Spielberg, Spends Time on Indiana Jones 4 Set, where a different style photo of mine was used as the article illustration. Notice the photo of Indiana Jones getting his face punched in by a Nazi goon? Yeah, that’s mine.

Tololy, what? You mean the black nail polish and model fingers aren’t Google-worthy?
Life, the photo was taken from Wikicommons, which is a free image repository where the images are displayed under a Creative Commons: Attribution license. Basically that means that anyone can use this image for free as long as they list me as the author of the image (which they did).
Um Omar, thanks.
