Googleguilt Edit Meaning

1.

n. The sense of anxiety, sketch, voyeurism, or general sneakiness that one derives from googling an acquaintance or person-of-interest.

Can also be applied to the strange and guilty feeling one has when deliberately seeking out information on a guilty pleasure ( slashfiction, cosplay, a fansite, or Sheryl Crow, for instance). Alternately, it might mean the sneaky feeling one gets when reading the myspaceprofile or friendster page of an acquaintance, former classmate, or coworker.

"I met this really cool dude in the Laundro-Rama, but I felt so sketchand skeevywhen I googled him later. Major googleguilt."

See google, guilt, voyeurism
