larkaflint If you guys doesn’t have any idea what Googleganger means, watch this short video from google lab:

simianaudio I saw another good spin on this one on Twitter today - someone with your name with whom you battle for pagerank supremacy. Jul 20, 2008
Prolagus Uh, ok! I didn't read the definition well enough, sorry.
Then, what's the name of such words? Apr 16, 2008
sionnach FWIW, I don't think that 'gaydar' is a cranberry morpheme; if anything, it would be the 'dar' part.
I seem to recall reading an article recently which suggested that 'dango' was an up-and-coming cranberry morpheme. Apr 16, 2008
Prolagus Here is another example of a cranberry morpheme, frindley:
gaydar!
(But it's not the kind of word you're looking for, is it?) Apr 16, 2008
reesetee "Why do so many feel a connection — be it kinship or competition — with utter strangers just because they share a name?
"Social science, it turns out, has an answer. It is because human beings are unconsciously drawn to people and things that remind us of ourselves.
"A psychological theory called the name-letter effect maintains that people like the letters in their own names (particularly their initials) better than other letters of the alphabet." -- Stephanie Rosenbloom, "Names That Match Forge a Bond on the Internet," NYT Online, 4/10/08 Apr 15, 2008
reesetee Thank you, Don Prolagus. Apr 14, 2008
Prolagus Good link monsieur reesetee! Apr 14, 2008
reesetee Prolagus, are you thinking of aphesis? Apr 14, 2008
bilby I'd include things like soyacino in this, because -cino is just a derivation from the diminuitive suffix -ino. It doesn't specifically have anything to do with coffee, it's just there due to to mental association with cappuccino. Apr 14, 2008
mollusque Brain itch alert! I've seen such words too, frindley, but none are surfacing. Apr 14, 2008
Prolagus And I will be happy to add words to that list!
The only example I remember right now is not exactly what you mean, but it's close enough: schoolbus, minibus etc. derive from omnibus, "for all" in Latin. Apr 14, 2008
frindley I'm also reminded that there are other similar constructions in English, where the portion of the original word chosen for creation of a new word is the "wrong" bit for the intended meaning. Why can I not think of any examples? If I could I would be able to make a list. Apr 14, 2008
frindley Although it be all wrong, I do like the alliterative potential of googleganger when translated "google goer". Apr 14, 2008
seanahan Peck_Jon, you are brilliant, and correct. This term is hereby removed from the common usage. Unless of course, Google does a Yellow Pages spoof. Apr 14, 2008
peck_jon Properly speaking, shouldn't the word be doppelgoogle? "Google double" makes a lot more sense than "Google walker"
From the German:
doppel = double
ganger = walker/wanderer Apr 12, 2008
fbharjo googlehangeroner?? the galloping frugalgoogler?? a wiki(w)rid(t)er who stays in step or an orthodoxorthopedic Apr 10, 2008
gangerh My googleganger is googlegangerh. Apr 8, 2008
Prolagus I don't have a list for most of my wordworks, so they happen to be orphans (see e.g. sproutade). Apr 4, 2008
plethora My googleganger is a Canadian TV personality. She is also my searchwikiaganger. Apr 4, 2008
bilby Nobody is listing searchwikiaganger. Why don't you?
:-) Apr 4, 2008
Prolagus Yeah, that's why I prefer the term searchwikiaganger. Apr 4, 2008
bilby I hate neologisms that are Trojan horses for proprietary brand names. Apr 4, 2008
Prolagus Sigh, my googleganger was a famous Italian photographer (soccer and Pope, very very Italian) who died in 2005.
Soccer and the Pope are 90% of the results for my name.
I hate soccer, and I'm atheist. Apr 4, 2008
jonallen It's suchh a good word that the American Dialect Society have voted it the Most creative word of the year for 2007. Jan 7, 2008
reesetee Good enough reason to become your googleganger, I'd say. Nov 2, 2007
sonofgroucho One of my googlegangers is in business with his brother, and together they were reckoned to be worth £89 million in 2005. Nov 2, 2007
reesetee Gee, I feel sorta left out. Of googlegangers, I have none.
Then again, anyone lucky enough to spell my name correctly would definitely get a Googlestar. Feb 19, 2007
uselessness I have an unusual first name but a very common last name. I'm always surprised how many googlegangers I have, and slightly disappointed. I grew up thinking I had a terribly unique name. But there's still only one me.
And I'm not aware of anyone else who goes by the name "uselessness" online, which I think is just fun. I mean, how many ordinary words are such a chore to say, and contain no fewer than 5 S's? And describe me so well, at that? :-D Feb 19, 2007
chained_bear For someone I live with, one of his two googlegangers is a gay travel writer, and one is a Grammy-award-winning sound engineer. Feb 19, 2007
sionnach I have two primary googlegangers. One is a professor of Chinese at the University of Virginia, the other is a minister somewhere near Hobart, in Australia. Feb 19, 2007
seanahan This word definitely has its uses. Feb 18, 2007
sionnach googleganger -- another person of the same name, whose records are intermixed with your own when you "google" yourself. I love this word! One could argue for an umlaut over the a, to make the parallel with doppelganger more complete, but either way, this coinage is genius!
