Ben Barren blogged about a new web 2.0 personality test site…a la Myers-Briggs Testing. It’s called PersonalDNA and it’s pretty cool. Having done these types of online tests many times over the years, I’m usually skeptical of the legitimacy.

BUT, this one seems to have gotten it correct. The site interface is very Web 2.0ey and user friendly. Plus, I didn’t agree with all of the ‘findings’, for once…despite answering all of the questions truthfully…so, it must be right, right?

Here’s my Personal DNA Report. It says I’m an ESFP.

Have fun…

I love reading Hugh MacLeod.  For nearly two years…which is like forever in internet time…I have soaked up his wit and wisdom and advice.  He’s an inspiration for many many people…including me.

Someday soon, I hope to be able to use the things I’ve learned from Hugh.

Until then, The Jamoker is just a Local NanoBrand, hoping to figure things out and graduate to Global MicroBrand status…

Thanks, Hugh!

For members of a certain demographic, watching Schoolhouse Rock on Saturday mornings was fun.  At the time, I personally didn’t care much for the “I’m Just A Bill“…preferring instead the more riveting and upbeat “Conjunction Junction“.  But, today, the message of “I’m Just A Bill” is still with me.

A friend sent me a link to this very funny video today…

Someday I’d like to live in Europe…just so I can see condom commercials on the telly.

There needs to be more humor in the world…

Delta had always had passive-aggressive tendencies. These tendencies exemplified his personality. Without spending any time in self analysis, he liked the feeling being passive-aggressive gave him. It gave him a thrill. He played the part of the dutiful son, grandson, student and employee. Secretly, though, he was always plotting and scheming. On the outside, he was a model person. On the inside, he was always making plans to take over the world.

The test of whether people love what they do is whether they’d do it even if they weren’t paid for it– even if they had to work at another job to make a living. How many corporate lawyers would do their current work if they had to do it for free, in their spare time, and take day jobs as waiters to support themselves?

Alright, time for me to ‘fess up. I’m in a foul mood.

I have had it on my list to blog about the latest VW campaign for a week or so. Ever since last October, I have eagerly anticipated the new VW commercials.

The Last Minute Blog has gone and done the work for me. Go check it out…

Update:
This new campaign is getting huge play on the internet.  Thoughts from the experts…

I find the ads interesting and appealing.  But, then again, my judgement is prolly clouded by my desire to work for CPB, drive fast German cars, date strong blonde-haired frauleins and drink huge steins of lager!!!
