INTP [The architect] 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.
What's impressive is that it seems to work pretty well (and quickly) all without having any way of directing or testing my responses, simply analyzing presented material. When I did a formal Myers-Briggs test taking about an hour I ended up with INTJ - "The Mastermind", with the only real difference being it represents a more outcome orientated approach, rather than strictly structure building. Which makes sense in many ways as my posts on this blog largely involve me responding to and breaking apart whats going on, rather than urging and advocating changes. The medium shapes the message.
Now its all a bit meta to post this on my site, (though once again I'm responding), but you could have some fun shaping it (and perhaps even changing the way other people perceive your work and words based on appearing to represent an alternate type) or seeing how it reads your friends writings.
Then again I wonder if the blog will take into account the fact I've just written this whole post to try and avoid the last painful bits of marking I have left. Hardly the act of a worldly analyst is it ?
Eh, forget marking, I'm going back to playing Left 4 Dead. I wonder what effect my desire to kill zombies in mass quantities has on my personality type?
