report - cancy search

I was bored. So I did this:

Title: Google Search on Myself

Aim: To find out if there are other Cancys out there and also to find interesting things using this name.

Intro: I have always thought that there was only one Cancy in this world, until one day someone said that there probably was, with only 26 letters in the alphabet after all. So I decided to try searching my name on Google, the online Search engine, and see what came out. I decided to only list some of the more relevant web pages, as listing all of them would be crazy.

Results:

^the lone result, once again thanks to rashi.

Conclusion: The results have been quite interesting. Besides proving quite obviously that there are more then one Cancys, I have also found a band with my name in it and a belt actually called Cancy Belt. Also, I am probably the only Cancy Chu around this world, though not the first. There is a Cancy over 40 years old who does digital art! The only two websites that came up with me on it was one web page from the Ministry of Education on the School Video Awards that I had entered and my friend's blog. Funnily enough, they did not list my blog. Perhaps it was on later pages on the search results. I had a fun time doing this and have "enriched my knowledge". Hopefully, it may come to use.
