Personality Types

Chris Sells, ChrisAn, Scoble and G. Andrew Duthie have all been talking about their Meyers-Briggs personality types. They're all ENTJ, which means that they're extrovert/intutitive/thinking/judging.

I was starting to get worried that there were no I-dominant bloggers at Microsoft. That is, until today when Kent Sharkey came out of the closet as an INTP (introverted/intuitive/thinking/perceiving). Very cool...glad to know there's another INTP out there somewhere.

My results:

I'm apparently somewhat introverted (more or less depending on my environment), strongly intuitive (true -- I often go with my gut on things), biased towards thought over emotion (yup; i'm a rationalist), and strongly perceptual (meaning I like to be open-ended as opposed to tightly structured). All these things are pretty much true.

This is the 3rd time I've taken a test like this, and the results are pretty consistent. I don’t put too much stock in the biographical content of personality type descriptions, but some portions of this description are shockingly accurate – particularly with respect to music and humor.
