Which one? I appear to have misplaced the URL of the one I used to know about...

Hey, I met you. 8)

Got to thank you for record store recommendations, too, I believe. And thanks again, I might add.

Depending on the day and my mood, I get INFP, INFJ, and ENFP.

I'm always surprised when geeks are E. I'm most reliably INFP myself, but the one time a test was administered in a face-to-face setting I ended up INxP.

link?

A link to an online version would be lovely, I haven't found one either.

If it's the website that I've run into, the results aren't particularly accurate - everyone I know that's taken it, and has also taken the actually Myers-Briggs test reports at least one, and usually two categories to be incorrect. In case anyone's wondering, the Myers-Briggs organization forbid the use of their testing mechanisms online unless you pay - and thus any test you find online for free, claiming to be Myers-Briggs isn't at all the "official" one.

My take on that is simply that the 'informal' tests don't have the depth of reinforcing questions that the official version does - and thus are more likely to provide variable and/or inaccurate answers.

YMMV.

cheers!
(oh - (E|I)NTP, usually - I prefer the eneagram myself, since it's more useful in practical terms)

Hey, me too!

ENFP--sometimes known as the "party-animal personality type."

Let's get together, neg?

Just got your book...or rather prettypammie bought it, but I happened to be home when Amazon delivered...so I get dibs while she's struggling through the end of her RHCE Rapid Track course and exam.

Be Happy!

Aww, a two-geek household. Nothing sweeter.

I hope you enjoy the book. It's long, so a lot of people don't get to Appendix B. Check it out.

Will do. :)

To be honest we were disappointed when we found your book...for over a year, Pam has been plotting in her mind a text/reference on how to "do system administration" (both "practice" and "practical") in the Real World...

Don't you hate it when you have a good idea, and find out someone beat you two it.

Yep, we are fellow big-time geeks...plus if you look at our interest lists, I think you'll find a few other points of commonality. * grin *
