TURKEY: I don’t understand … if you’re “out”, make yourself “findable”?

I don’t understand baby turkeys. I usually stress “getting connected”. That is a triple cocktail of LinkedIn, Plaxo, and webpage. LinkedIn and Plaxo should be self-explanatory. Once you have a webpage with your own name on it, it’s not long (usually a few hours to at most a few days) before the vacuum cleaner search engines come in, suck it up, and index it. Everybody is worried about “privacy”. Now don’t get me wrong, I am NOT suggesting that one post your SSN on the web or even your real email address. But heck, if you want to be found by a recruiter of any ilk, you have to try a little. Like that joke about “hlep me out here. buy  a ticket”. Arghhh!
