One tip, try googling yourself. I was asked to do this once when a CV came into the office. One hit - MySpace, hobbies listed as 'sex and drinking'. We binned it. Not to suggest that your e-presence is quite this blatant but its amazing what can turn up that may be less than flattering. Whereas e.g. a listing as a speaker at the local archaeology society, your amazing charity work raising money for looted museums in iraq, and your in depth web portal on roman fibulae... looks good (if geeky)!
