If I could remember everywhere I've actually created an account/staked a claim on some internet bandwidth and squatted on it/whatever, I would go around and systematically delete all of them.
The only problem with this is that I only remember when something excruciatingly stupid, like "I've friended you on Facebook!" shows up in my inbox.
Really? I have a Facebook? Why would I do that?
Oh, right, because someone talked me into it, years ago. I think I've only ever logged in once (when it was created) and ignored it since, much like the MySpace I have that I don't even remember the address of. Were it not for MySpace's auto notifications, I wouldn't even remember that I had one.
So I probably have about twenty GreatestJournals, most for games past or yet to come, about fifteen LiveJournals, for games past, for the fun of creating the name, for other reasons altogether, five or six email addresses, two or three web pages, a Facebook and a MySpace, and I think I recall a WordPress and a couple of Bloggers too. I might have a Photobucket account, but I don't remember. I have an eBay account, and an Amazon account, both of which I remember because I'm continually surprised whenever I log in somewhere and am greeted as me.
I had an SMS account, but I deleted that when I kept getting text messages from the equivalent of serial adders on LJ.
Fun fact: If you google my real name, one of the very few hits (I've designed it that way) to come up is a web server that was supposedly purged back in 2000, from Evergreen, where I had web space that I never used because it turned into this stupid argument between J. and N. about whether to teach me HTML or to teach me FrontPage.
Talk about your cache.
Anyway. I have no idea where all I've left digital fingerprints, but it's moments like these that make me want to figure it out and go delete all of them. Because really - why keep space I'm not using?
ETA: I cannot believe I just paid thirty bucks for a very small piece of plastic.
