Rogue Angel pointed me to the Typealyzer, which infers a blog author’s Myers-Briggs type. Last I checked I was an INFJ, but this is pretty close.
INFP - The Idealists
The meaning-seeking and unconventional type. They are especially attuned to making sure their beliefs and actions are congruent. They often develop a passion for the arts or unusual forms of self-expression.
They enjoy work that are aligned to their deeply felt values and tend to strongly dislike the more practical and mundane forms of tasks. They can enjoy working alone for long periods of time and are happiest when they can immerse themselves in personally meaningful projects.
INFP’s are pretty darn cool.

How cool is this? I type myself as INFJ mostly, or sometimes INFP, and that’s what typealizer came up for MY blog, too: INFP. Very very interesting… Have you ever checked the blogs you follow? I wonder if we gravitate toward blogs written in our type style? I wonder if bloggers fall in types disproportionate to their percentage of the population? (I would guess so - I would guess the NF’s and the NT’s are more likely to be moved (obsessed? compulsed?) to self-expression through blogging? Fascinating stuff this is????
