Googling Your Date
“Googling the one you (might) love is fairly common among the young, professional and Internet-savvy. ’Everyone does it...and if [they say] they're not doing it, they're lying.'” — Nara Schoenberg, "Don't Go Into Date Blind; Singles Googling Before Canoodling," Chicago Tribune, April 2, 2001.
Marriage licenses and divorce records are public records as are professional licenses. Singles regularly use Lexis/Westlaw and the internet to ascertain more about their dates. Some partake in "internet informational gathering" to curb their curiosity. Does my date rent or own? Others want to verify their date’s honesty. Did they really go to Harvard? Is he/she really an attorney?
For better or worse, "Googling" dates is standard practice. The results can be enlightening, surprising, and even disturbing. Read CNN's recent article “Googling Your Date” (April 10, 2007). Also see, “Consider 'Googling' potential dates the new form of flattery” (August 13, 2002).
