PeekYou - The People Search Engine

PeekYou - The People Search Engine

Have you guys seen the new PeekYou? It’s a new people search engine, that is still in beta, but I was quit surprised when I did a search for my name, and I was on there! Number one, with a picture that I use on several message boards.

I’m going to assume they get this content from MySpace or Facebook, because it’s the same user picture I use there, and plus it list my age. Those are the only two places online that list my age in that manner.

When I clicked through to my profile page, all the information is there about my blogs as well. Go check it out! Put in your name and see what comes up. I’m not sure if I think this is cool, or a little freaky that they know so much. HA! It will be interesting to see where this goes though.

    My vote goes with freaky.

  2. MyAvatars 0.2 Loretta Says:

    It must be myspace :-p I’m not listed in there. I search a few names, and wow some it pulled a lot of results for. Kind of a little freaky.

  3. MyAvatars 0.2 Julie Says:

    It’s definitely partly Myspace or Facebook, but there is soooo much about me on there that isn’t on either one of those places! LOL!

    It doesn’t find me. Should I be thankful or insulted? Perhaps I should join myspace or facebook, hrmm.

  5. MyAvatars 0.2 Jason Says:

    Pretty interesting. I think a ton of it is based off of Myspace going by the results I’m seeing.

    Have you compared against Spock? I haven’t really played with either of them to much extent. I figure if I really want to find someone’s details, I can pay $30 for a background check. So far, haven’t needed to spend the money.

    Although I didn’t find myself there this is an interesting service. (but Google is better :D)

    Good find Julie. I didn’t find myself there, so I have been saved the trouble of freaking out and having big brother nightmares. :)
    I’m guessing MySpace is a major information resource for this because I’m not on MySpace.
