What personality type do you drop into?
Discussion
Found a pretty interesting site the other day that determined what sort of perosnality type you had. Theres no test questions or registration pages or any of that other cack like I've seen before, you just have to spend a couple minutes deciding if you have the traits mentioned in one box, or the traits mentioned in the other.
Spend a couple mins on http://www.geocities.com/lifexplore/mbintro.htm and then click the "type descriptions" link in the text below the table to get a profile of you (in theory).
I was either ENTP or ENFP (These star trek-esque letters will make sense) which means I am either an Innovator or Leader. Probably closer to an innovator. The profile confirms, amongst other things, that I don't like feeling that I am being controlled to do things that I don't see as making sense, I refrain from making detailed plans before starting something and that I am confident in my 'gut feeling' to make decisions.
It'd be intersting to see what sort of people PHers are in general. I'd go as far as to say most people would drop into the 'Rationals' and 'Guardians' categories (As the others are 'Idealists' and 'Artists'... I may be completely wrong though).
The descriptions can also be scarily revealing when stating things such as what you regard as important in life, what makes you tick and certain things that make you angry etc.
Apparently these things are also being used more in recruitment to decide if someone will fit into a role. Never happended to me, but I can imagine them being quite revealing with regards to getting a jist of if someone would fit into a certain role (although you can probably tell from just talking with them for 30 mins)

ISTP - and it matches me quite well... but i've heard people say it's like a horoscope...
I was a student working in a department full of miserable b
ds who hated each other, so they sent us away for a few days to fo team building. Part of that included the briggs myers personality test... quite interesting.
