Personal Website Question: About Me Page

Personally, I've opted to put a more sanitized version of my resume on my about me page. [1] One that does not include address, phone, or even current employer. Keeping all of that behind a request link/email is just fine in my opinion, and not overkill. The only reason I bother is in case someone is curious about my background or wants to peruse my resume and consider me without having to show their hand with an actual solicitation. As far as anything else, I'd suggest just doing what you feel comfortable with. Your name is exceedingly common, probably even in the military, so I'm not sure someone would entirely be able to track you down should they want to, especially if you're only giving the sort of bio that you might find at the end of a magazine article or book cover.

Hey Everyone, I am considering adding an "about me" page to a web site I am building, some what like an online resume type setup, however being mindful of my personal data being leaked out to "bob" I am considering the good and the bad along with what to actually put on the page. Any suggestions on material to have on the page? Any suggestions on material not to have on the page? I had considered offering PDF, Word Doc, and text resumes for downloads but decided against that sine my resume contains things such as my address and phone number, and since I know how "bob" works I would be getting prank calls at 3am to say the least :-) I also considered my military information, however this too concerned me with "bob" lurking around. I figure a simple button or link that says request email, then I can email the resume allowing me to choose who gets it. This seem like a good idea or over kill? What have others in the InfoSec field done? Thanks everyone in advance for the advice!
