Digital or Invisible Footprints?

I "googled" myself to see what would come up when employers googled me and not much came up! (See my post below to read about that!) However, I was reading Kim's blog titled "Google = Unsuccessful" and she was talking about how common her last name is and how when she googled her name - nothing came up about her! In some ways it would be good to have a common last name and have an invisible footprint! Nobody would be able to find you on the web - is that a good thing or a bad thing?

When I googled my name, lots of "Alan Jackson" came up and only a couple things came up that actually pertained to me!!! Google yourself! What comes up?!?
