Googling For Dates?

JAK writes "The New York Times' down-to-earth ethicist Randy Cohen writes on the moral implications of searching for a date's past on Google. He suggests that the practice is ok (even admitting to doing it himself) but warns against jumping to conclusions based on a quick search or confusing someone for others with the same name. He also writes that "the verb ''to Google'' is now a familiar neologism" (neologism: a new word, usage, or expression, I looked it up). You can read about it The Times (free reg blah blah)"

It must demoralize those poor souls at AOL, with all their child-proofing and spam and ads, that no one ever says, "I met an interesting guy and AOL'ed him."

Yeah, maybe that's cause it sounds so much like "I met an interesting guy and A-Holed him". And WTF would people think then. Except maybe for those on slashdot like say IANAL. C'mon! Is the web full of homosexual references? Arr crap, here come the troll mods. It's funny guys. I'm not really homophobic.
