Blog Type





I read this article in the Business week about this Swedish research on analyzing blogs based on data gathered over several years. I decided to give it a shot. I was amazed to see what it came up with about me and my blog..
This is what the exact result was:



Hmm, I kind of like it... Duty Fulfiller!

There was also another link to analyzing the archetype through the blog which was quite fascinating to read too... Here is the result..


I tend to agree with it to a very high degree of about 90% with the result...

What is your blog's personality type? A new Web site called Typealyzer will analyze your blog and tell you what it says about you. Typealyzer is a research project that looks at how language reflects a person's psychological type and his or her motivations and interests. The site was created by Mattias Östmar of PRfekt, a Swedish research and development company focused on media analysis
Feel free to test it on your blogs as well.

There is a link to a personality test as well in the article which does a test on the 4 Temperaments for a person based on a few questions about personalities, testing the Extravertness, Intuitiveness, Feeling, Perception (ENFP) of a person. These were the results I got. 



More surprisingly, the suggested Careers for these scores were in Social Services, Professional Writer, Public Relations, Marketing and Education. Surprising these are the bits and pieces of the few things that I am currently doing and love to do. Blindly without a second wink, Let me say "Great, I am on the right track in life.. (at least in a career sense)" A sense of comfort.. Well, let me get back to work now..
