Most Wanted

Here's something else independent artists (and probably lots of other people) do from time to time:

They search their own name on Google.

We justify it by saying that "search engine optimization" is an important part of our businesses, which maybe it is.

On the other hand, sometimes it's just navel-gazing.

Anyway, right now Lynn Harrison the singer-songwriter occupies the Top 8 spots on Google.

The 9th listing is an FBI "Most Wanted Fugitive". (Somebody else...a Gary Lynn Harrison, also, coincidentally, from Texas. Wanted for bank fraud. Note to self: pay Visa bill today.)

It's a symbolic reminder that my "web-presence" isn't the real me. The real person is hiding out somewhere else...and she's the "most wanted" one.
