Personal DNA now on Facebook

For all you elites and upper middle class Facebook preferrers, my favorite personality test is now available as a Facebook application. PersonalDNA.com is actually *fun* to take, and I find the results more interesting (and frankly, agreeable) than most of the supposedly psychology-based typology tests I've experienced.
I tend to vary between "considerate leader" and "considerate inventor," depending on what sort of situation I'm in while I'm taking the test.
Check it out, biatches!

kinda creepy...

Facebook / Myspace = Which social class are you?

It's no secret that I've despised Myspace since it first came out. Facebook is so orderly and I've never even noticed an advertisement (are there any??).

Anyway, this is a fascinating study:

Why didn't I think of it first?! ARGH.
