Meyer-Briggs rocks. I'm an INTJ, which is a fairly common type - at least among my circle of friends! I know at least five other INTJs, mostly among my family, and I only really know the occasional otherwise. I actually looked into it quite a bit as a characterisation aid - if I know one or two characteristics of a person I can decide whether they're a ESTJ or a ENTJ, etc, and get some predictions of other personality traits. But I've never really considered Meye-Briggs as more than a momentary "how cool" thing - I generally learn by trial and error - as the above demonstrates. But hmmm... I should have another look around - maybe I can find that "To chase or not to chase" guide after all. :)

Meyer Briggs remains half voodoo as far as I'm concerned, however. It's obviously better than astrological charts, but putting real people in boxes is always going to lead to faulty assumptions about how they work, etc. (Of course, that's apparently a very INTJ thing to say, so... *headdesk*)

In any case, if it gives me a guide that's going to be right more of the time than I would otherwise be... rock on! ;)
