Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Noah and I'm going to show you how to find someone's e-mail address. You don't need a lot of things to be able to find somebody's e-mail address but it will help you to know exactly where the person lives and what his job title and employer is. A good place to start when searching for someone's e-mail address is at people.yahoo.com. With Yahoo!'s people search tool, there are lots of different search options including a specific e-mail search. Here you can just type in the first name and the last name of the person you're searching for and you'll get a list of lots of e-mail addresses from all the people with that name. Now, if the person you are looking for doesn't appear in your first results, you can just click on more to get the full list. Also, for a more specific search, you can just go to Google, for example. Type in the name of the person you're looking for and if you know where they work, for example, if I know that the person teaches at Stanford University, I can just type the name of the workplace, the word e-mail and try searching for that one. Sure enough, here right away, I find his e-mail address which is sometimes scrambled, for example, the words "at" and "dot" spelled out instead of in signs, so as to avoid getting spammed at that e-mail address. But, nevertheless, by doing a simple Google search like this one, we can find anyone's e-mail address."
