Massage my ego 
11
Whilst catching up on my backlog of unread RSS feeds, I came across “Web Ego Assessment” on Melvin Rivera’s All Forces which pointed out ego surf - this is a site on which you enter your name and site address and it goes off, trawls various search engines and directories and gives you a score based on how often your name and site crops up.
I initially entered my real name — Timothy Griffin — and the address for this site and was rewarded with a mildly disappointing score of 1682. I then entered “Timmargh”, because that’s the name I always use on forums and whenever I comment on a site, and I got … * drum roll * …
I did a search for “Timmargh” in Google myself and discovered that literally 99% of the hits refer to me - I obviously have far too much time on my hands.
Go and search for yourselves and let me know your scores.
Not bad! I scored 6898 egopoints.
*Me happy…* :^D - MHC
My ego is sadly bruised: 1256 ego points. - Katja
Nowhere near yours, Tim; 6892. - charlesdawson
Tim is Da Man. - MHC
Hahaha, that’s well good.
My site only receives a meagre 774 points.
Interestingly ‘daniels blog’ gets a hefty 1215 - Daniel Harper
I get a big fat 0. - Stretch
No way, Stretch! That can’t be! o_0 - MHC
Zero? Some mistake, surely? - Timmargh
haha, no. No mistake. Stretch is a pretty popular word, so its all over the place, except where I am. - Stretch
… and to make my ego even bigger, I now seem to have risen to 11782! - Timmargh
Good lord! There is no stopping this man!!! ;^) - MHC
