I Guess I’m A “Doer”

Posted by WhiteCoat on November 22, 2008

The latest craze is a web site that classifies a bloggers’ personality based upon his or her posts.

I’ve plugged quite a few blogs that I read into the site and it seems pretty accurate – at least from what I can guess.

Hat Tip to Mother Jones.com

ESTP – The Doers

The active and playful type. They are especially attuned to people and things around them and often full of energy, talking, joking and engaging in physical out-door activities.

The Doers are happiest with action-filled work which craves their full attention and focus. They might be very impulsive and more keen on starting something new than following it through. They might have a problem with sitting still or remaining inactive for any period of time.

    James Randi gives the same horoscope to a group of people, and it describes them all perfectly.

    I can see what you mean about attributing certain characteristics to oneself. Kind of like the old palm readers.

  5. Wow. I wonder how the site is set up to analyze your blog content, because it took about half a second, and I totally agree with what it had to say about my blog.

    By the way, I linked your post.

    Uh, mine said I avoid conflict and arguments. Obviously incorrect.

    I mean WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE AT TYPEALYZER, YOU REALLY THINK I’M GOING TO BELIEVE THIS CRAP!?!?!??! [breaks a table in half with a chair]

    Very fun.

    I tried it and came out “The Performer”, the entertaining, friendly, helpful person who rarely initiates conflict…
