I do personality quizzes and stuff on line when I'm trying to avoid work ...

Today my mum sent us all a thing about left/right brain:

http://www.care2.com/greenliving/what-are-the-differences-between-the-left-and-right-brain.html

(She also sent a thing from care2 about how to cook Brussels sprouts ...)

So I was looking up left/right brain tests for everybody to play with, and came to a site where I had recently participated in a study about best friends.

https://research.peoplematching.org/volunteer/

For their study, you and your best friend both complete questionnaires. You don't get anything out of it, it's just to help understand how people make friends and maybe come up with a way to match people with possible friends in future. I did it with my friend for the last 40 years.

Then, after I did the right/left brain quiz there,

http://personality-testing.info/tests/OHBDS/

It gave this link:

https://global.peoplematching.org/

* The Global Matching Project is the division of the free and open source People Matching Project that helps users find the person with the most similar personality to them in all the world (or as close as possible). The Global Match Project uses a carefully designed personality survey that is based on what is probably the most detailed research ever conducted on what aspects of personality are important for determining if two people have the potential to be best friends (see research.peoplematching.org). Users are matched without regard to location or any demographic factors (though all users must speak English). Due to gender differences in personality it is most likely that you will be matched to a person of the same gender, so do not try to use this as a dating website! It won't work very well as one.

* The process is quite simple and streamline. Just enter your email address below and complete the survey you get emailed. Then on the next matching day you will get emailed your best fit match. There are currently 2228 people registered for this round, matching day will happen when at least 10,000 people are registered for the round.

Well, I've done it, now only 7771 more people need to do it!

So everybody go sign up and do the questionnaire now. :-D

Well https://global.peoplematching.org/ has 2259 people registered now, that's 30 more than yesterday, so I'm guessing a few here have signed on :-)

Now what happens if some of us get matched with each other ....... :-D
