I had a potential interview not happen because apparently I refused the Skype request. But there's no mention of this in my Skype. So I assume they had the wrong address.
Skype shows my account like bshawadiwadi, going back many years, and the name like Bob Shawadiwadi. If I search for bshadwadiwadi (using my account so I've no idea if that hides me), I find a couple of people one of whom has the addresss live:bsahawadiwadi, but isn't me. If I search for Bob Shawadiwadi I get a load of people who aren't me, and if I use the long version Robert Shawawadiwadi I get a different bunch of people that aren't me.
Anyone know if there is a way to test that searching for my name returns me? I've given my username before to people and they've found me, but not often. Although I regularly use Skype normally I send other people a contact request. I'm particularly confused that somebody else seems to have the same name as me but with live: on the front - I know MS integrated Skype with MS Live recently because I had to change the password due to my account being hacked.
Grrrr.
