I have Google alerts set to email me when something comes up with ‘martinpiraino’ without the space, pretty cool to see where your information is being seen/used, and since my twitter name is my first and last name like that, it’s come up quite often lately.

I also have an alert for “Martin Piraino” and a couple of other variations, and get at least one or two emails a day lately.

I found myself quoted on another blog – regarding a tweet I answered about avatars on Twitter, should it be a picture or logo? My take on it was to have picture unless it is a company, then logo is ok.

The post in it’s entirety is located here:  Twitter Avatars – Photo vs. Logo

Pretty interesting to have my opinion counted in this and to find it on Google.

My little piece of it is noted below:

MartinPiraino I prefer to see a picture not a logo, unless it is a business, then logo is ok.
