Hmm. Googling a person is nosey. Nosey is not desireable. Nosey is not acceptable behavior I had passed on to me and I passed it on to all my children.

Google lets a nosey person be nosey in private and anonymously. It is still not desireable.

Young people ( and some older ones) Google everything and think it's all the same. That was my point. Nobody my age tells me or my peers "Hay, I just found out our new manager is divorced and has 3 kids,and used to work for botuniverse.com."

I would directly ask that person "why on earth did you want to find that out!?!?"

Perhaps this is a generational think....
