Googling oneself

What is the acceptable level of self-googling and should one feel guilty for doing so?

Self gratification is like the magical unicorn farts that keeps the internet running. No need to feel guilty.

I initially thought this was about ogling onself. If one is decked out in some fine office pants and an office jacket, then ogling self regularly is acceptable imo.

There is a guy with my name who is very involved in online forums about very detailed models. Model cars, movie characters, dinosaurs, shadowbox diaramas, etc. Needless to say, he's got a lot of pics posted of the super-duper accurate to life T-Rex or whatever, all with my name attached

This is not his, but stuff like this:

I have to find out what is out there about me. Also to find out if any of my posts here are somehow associated with my full name.
