Following Suit

Mike recently stumbled onto something interesting that he discussed on his blog, Beautiful is Safe. The Typealyzer is designed to "read" your blog and from it, determine your personality. Mike felt like his was pretty damn close. Does anyone who actually knows me think that the analysis below accurately describes me?

INTP - The Thinkers
The logical and analytical type. They are especially 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.

I mean the site is still in Beta so it's not perfect. Plus it's done by Swedes, who everybody knows can't be trusted. Are you sure you didn't enter my blog address?

Hi Fitz. Thanks for visiting my ruminations. The Typalyzer is scary. How so fast? How it knows me? Except for the confrontation part and the fact that I live in a cave that smells like bats, it was pretty on point. Here's what I got:

The Performer- the entertaining and friendly type. They are especially attuned to pleasure and beauty and like to fill their surroundings with soft fabrics, bright colors and sweet smells. They live in the present moment and don´t like to plan ahead - they are always in risk of exhausting themselves.

The enjoy work that makes them able to help other people in a concrete and visible way. They tend to avoid conflicts and rarely initiate confrontation - qualities that can make it hard for them in management positions.
