Personality analysis of my blog

by | Thursday, November 20, 2008

As you know I am always intrigued by a new breed to personality analysis tools that are out there in the world (for instance see these prior postings: on PersonalDNA; on Color IQ; and browsing for gender). So here is this new website that seeks to analyze me by studying my blog.

Check out Typealizer… Entering my URL in there got me the following analysis:

INTP – The Thinkers

The logical and analytical type. They are especialy attuned to difficult creative and intellectual challenges and always look for something more complex to dig into. They are great at finding subtle connections between things and imagine far-reaching implications.

They enjoy working with complex things using a lot of concepts and imaginative models of reality. Since they are not very good at seeing and understanding the needs of other people, they might come across as arrogant, impatient and insensitive to people that need some time to understand what they are talking about.

Hmm… I agree with all the nice parts but it clearly misses the point when it describes me as being someone who “might come across as arrogant, impatient and insensitive.” What is with that?

It also indicates which parts of my brain I am using while writing this blog…



Accept all this at your own risk!
