Derek Poore and Gary Swick both called my attention to this Lifehacker feature on tracking people down online. The one site mentioned there that hasn't been mentioned on Depth Reporting before is Who is This Person, a Firefox extension that lets you "Highlight any name on a web page and see matching information from Wink, LinkedIn, Wikipedia, Facebook, Google News, Technorati, Yahoo Person Search, Spock, WikiYou, ZoomInfo, IMDB, MySpace and more..."
Incidentally, for a more comprehensive list of sites useful for finding people, check out Depth Reporting's The Most Useful Web Sites for Reporters and search for "People finders" as the subject. Suggestions for new sites to add are always welcome.
