An Interesting Way To Waste Time

I heard about this website on Radio 2 the other day and thought it sounded like fun. It was set up by UCL and allows you to profile your surname by comparing the 1881 and 1998 censuses (or is that censi?). Anyway, it gives the basic meaning, the geographical spread and other stats.

Turns out my surname is quite common in Kentucky! So I may have hillbilly relatives!

Go on. Have a bash at the Surname Profiler.
