I love beautifying the internet one blog at a time. My latest efforts have been all over the place but the joy I got from creating hasn't gone away and eventually everything comes back to us. I also enjoy spending time with my 4 year old niece and my new baby nephew.
I don't usually pass along these types of alerts, but I'm a big proponent of privacy, especially these techno-days.
Spokeo.com is an online phone book gives that out some of your personal information and makes pics you've posted on FB or web, your credit score, home value, income, age, etc. available for a fee. I looked myself up and there I was, but several things were wrong. According to the site, I was married and had a house. News to me.

PASS THIS ALONG.

To remove yourself:
search yourself on their site
find the URL of your page and copy it
go to the Privacy button on the bottom of the page
paste your URL and enter email address (I used my junk drawer email)
you'll receive an email with a link to copy/paste to complete the removal
I did this and no longer show up.
EDIT: Also, look up your email and phone number. I didn't find my email but my cell was up there.
I also looked up a few other people and sure enough, there they were (complete with wrong info!).
NOTE: It will only allow two removals per email address.
