Google/Yahoo/Digg/SEO

In 2006, I had an unflattering article posted about me on Digg which led to other blogs picking up the story and mass postings on various other blogs. Everything was posted in a two day period, however this lasts a lifetime as we all know now in these times. I do not have a very common name, which has led the bad results to be be displayed easily if someone Googles my name. It has been really hard for me as I have been quite shamed and embarrassed. I am now in the job hunt, and the negative results are really hurting in the search and getting interviews even though I am more than qualified. I cannot contact the blog posters who reposted the unflattering article because that would lead to blow back and make things worse. Therefore I am looking for interested individuals who are familiar with Google bombing and other SEO work to have new posts that push the bad results down in Google's ranks. I do have a few ideas about the actual content that would be posted....but I am looking for more feedback and ideas on that. If there was a Digg new article that could be picked up by other blogs under my name which could fill up the first few pages of Google/Yahoo's results that may be an idea. I have also thought about profiles created under my name for social sites like Facebook, LinkedIn, Myspace, etc, with various people being different ages and from different locations in the world to make it look like there are many more living people that share my uncommon name. I am looking to start this project in the next few weeks. If you are good enough and able to successfully Google Bomb and push the bad results down in the search ranks, I would be interested with continued work and additional money. I am willing to do whatever is necessary to fix my reputation and give me peace of mind.
