It's harder than that.

Even if you remember to get Google to delete all their cached copies there are plenty of other search engines and archives out there ...

Basically, if you say something online it's there permanently, for all future potential employers, girlfrields etc to read.

Go to your own profile and find all threads started by you. Go to the first post in that thread, delete and that will delete the whole thread. Then go to your remaining posts and delete them one by one. You've not got many so shouldn't take too long!

Cheers

Does anybody have this itch to go and search all Eddie's posts to see what he's so embarrassed about?
