To Find People, Use SearchDetective
If you've ever tried finding people on MySpace or FaceBook, you probably hit more than a couple of snags. The truth is searching for friends on these modern online watering-holes is not the easiest thing in the world.
Don't try searching by the display name, which is often not a name at all. Most people, or at least smart ones, don't use real names here. Asphyxia Venom, a widowed 90-year old female dwarf from Bulgaria, may just turn out to be a teenager from Des Moines.
You may try searching for your friend by email address, that is, if you know the email address. What if you knew the person before email? It only seems like email's been around forever; as recently as 10-12 years ago, we actually called (from land lines, thank you very much) or wrote letters to stay in touch.
And here's a doozy: what if the person you want to find - gasp! - does not have a profile on MySpace, FaceBook, etc? What if it's not a joke, or a game, but a serious search for another human being, and people's lives and happiness depend on its success? Chances are you need much more reliable search tools.
In that case, you'll need a little more than the actual name of the person you're looking for. If you can also provide a possible past or present location, you are practically guaranteed a successful search. Here you will find out any and all public record information available on your long-lost friend or relative, giving you a pretty good idea of what he or she has been up to lately. You'll be dialing that unlisted phone number faster than you can say: "Oh snap!"
Remember, let SearchDetective.net do its job and find your people. And then, if the two of you choose, you can meet and have fun on MySpace.
