Search Lost Relatives..

Recently my wife's sister got curious about what had happened to her first husband after they got separated. That marriage had ended badly and they hadn't been in touch for almost thirty years. She tried searching for her ex-husband's name on Google and Yahoo but didn't get any hits. Knowing I do research online in my work as a qualified writer, she asked if I could find out anything.

I write for business and technical publications, so I use several high-priced databases for comprehensive investigation. But I recommended she try a simpler alternative - a solution I use myself when I want to find somebody quickly and without difficulty. I suggested she try one of the people search database services. Even the better ones charge so little, they're practically free. Most offer a trial period. I gave her the name of one to try.

She was dubious. She's not very comfortable using her computer for much more than email. Her stab at the search engines had already left her upset. Now she was going to have to "sign up for something and learn something entirely new... oh my goodness," was the way she put it.

Yet, later the same day I recommended it, she emailed back excitedly. In a few minutes, she'd found out all kinds of information about her ex. It turned out that he'd done something of a turnaround after they'd broken up. Their separation resulted from fights over his severe drinking problem. After they got separated, though, he'd eventually gone back to med school, gotten his MD and become an orthopedic doctor. He'd even been instrumental in developing some sort of device used by other surgeons in his field.

Unluckily, the poor fellow had passed, but at least my sister-in-law discovered reassure in knowing that things had worked out for him inspite of everything. She remarked that even though their relationship ended in the worst imaginable way, it had started from a good point. She said she hadn't actually wanted to contact him. She just wished to know what had happened to him.

At times all we want is only to satisfy our curiosity about what happened to someone we've lost track of. Most of us have an old pal or acquaintance we still think about.

A Better Way to Find People

I suspect that's what makes individuals searching so hot. As many as half a million times a month, someone searches on Google alone, searching for a way to find a lost person. Whether it's someone from the past with whom we've lost touch, or someone we met last weekend and desire to see again, were always searching for others.

Regrettably, many general searches fail. Just like Googling failed for my sister-in-law. The information is out there, somewhere. But being forced to sift through so many unrelated results makes it almost impossible.

By the way - most searchers don't know this - search engine results don't actually extend beyond about a thousand entries. Even when the search engine results page says they found millions and millions of hits, they don't really bother to dig it up and provide you access to all of it. They're actually just estimating from their own database tables. Even they understand it's a waste of time.

Free against Paid

I've been disappointed by the free services. Their major concern seems to be to try and get you to click on some of the pay-per-click ads they're displaying.
