While a recent study shows that Indians by and large look for sex on the Net, Mumbai’s celebs look for ‘mountain bikes, movies and me.’

I use Google for pretty much for everything, whether it is searching the net for some information or for an IP address. However, due to time constraint I do not indulge in idle surfing and my search is very focussed. The last time I googled, it was for a mountain bike and before that for the best flea collar for my dog. Besides I also use a lot of Google related software like Google Earth, Picasa and mail. But I don’t do ego surfing, though there are many others who do it for me.

I do occasionally Google stuff on movies — films from the past, information about directors and things like that. Sometimes I have even looked up my name and have been surprised to see some of my photographs, which I have never seen. It’s good fun.

Considering the fact that I acquired my first computer only three months ago, before which I steered clear of technology complete, I Google a lot these days. I often look up biographies on the net and about people I’d like to know more about. It is one word for all answer. It was while I was Googling that I came across a great site called www.scriptorama.com. I’ve never really done ego surfing but wouldn’t mind looking up my name once in a while.

Ego surfing? What’s that? Anyways I have searched for my name on Google once, sitting with my director Pankaj Prashar. We were comparing the number of times both of us feature.
