The biggest problem is probably going to be preventing other people from putting you back on it (tagging you in photos, writing about you etc.).
I recently went through the Google listing for my name and found dozens of profiles and sites I couldn't even remember signing up for. I was able to get most closed successfully. One site I had particular issues with was FriendFeed. I believe I signed up with my Twitter account, which I have since deleted. In otherwords I can't sign in to shutdown the FriendFeed profile. It also seems impossible to get in touch with them so that profile is stuck on the web when I would rather it wasn't.
Once you remove yourself from the first few pages of Google (time consuming but not difficult) your online life is invisible to most people. The only people that will find anything are those that really dig.
P.S. If anyone knows how to get my profile removed from FriendFeed when I can't login please let me know :)
