The following quote from an article in a recent CNET newsletter reads:
'A few months ago, I wrote a newsletter

informing you about
ZabaSearch.com (applies only in United States) and
how simple it was to obtain information on others through this type of
people-search engine. While many of you found this search engine to be
useful for locating old friends and such, just as many of you where
alarmed over privacy concerns. Well, I'm here again to inform you that
ZabaSearch has taken its search results and upped the ante--by not only
making it simple for others to surface info about you but also allowing
the ability for anyone to submit a blog about you--CNET editor Elsa
Wenzel puts it best: "Think of this as a giant public phone book that
you can scribble on." '
I didn't find myself in it, but I did find Rieta, Marylyn, and some
others on this mail list. Some of our subscriber's entries include phone
number, street address, and birthdate, all from just entering name and
state. Of the people I checked, none had an associated blog - so far -
but that capability is new.
You may love it as a aid to finding relatives or friends you've lost
contact with. Or, you may be horrified at what other can see about you.
