Sorry for derailing this, but I love the fact that you're using 'John Smith, not my real name' while having (probably?) your real name as a handle here.
Even better? There's a pmiller and you're pmiller2..

But that wasn't actually my point. My point was that starting with just a name, you're going to end up with precisely nothing about me. Even knowing my email address and everything on my LinkedIn page doesn't get you really anywhere. What you find ends up being a lot of info on people who are clearly not me. I'm pretty effectively hidden in plain sight.
