Help Please! Finding text on the web

[James Marinero]

I'm looking for some guidance on how to track down a piece of my text on the web, specifically an article I wrote some time ago. I guess I would need to type in a paragraph at least so that the extract is unique. Will Google do that or is there a better tool to use?

Thanks all

Google's fine - I usually find a single sentence is enough, as long as it's a fairly distinctive one.

As Brian said, Google usually works fine with that approach.

Ditto, Google, especially with a phrase that is distinct.

Or your name search might turn it up, and hopefully, it's not locked away as with articles placed on Helium.
