New Sites for Digging Up Dirt

There are some great free sites out there that I've been using lately to dig up information on individuals. I usually start with 123people.com. It returns some good information including links to social networking sites. I've even had email addresses returned. Once you have a subject's email address you can search common social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace, even YouTube.

Another great site for searching with email addresses is yoname.com. A fun site to try once you've found someone's Facebook or MySpace page is lococitato.com. Just put in the person's address and you'll see all the friends associated with that account.

Today I found out about a couple interesting new search engines. Take a look at Whostalkin.com and search blogs and websites for your subject. Searchme.com returns a visual of websites. Want to search blogs? Try Twingly.com.
