The move to my own hosted blog, wordpress, is being delayed until early January. Was planning it for November but something came up. Will post more when tonight when I get the chance.

As some people know i am highly contemptuous over BlogSpot because if its inferior futures. My main problem is its lack of Trackback URL support, it does have a “what links here” option but it is very limited.
So in a few weeks i am going to be setting up a website and i will host my own blog on that. I will be using WordPress.
just a heads up.

In order to interpret your raw trait scores, they were compared to the first 350,000 people to complete the full MyPersonality Big Five questionnaire. This allows the way that you described yourself to be put in the context of how other people respond to the questionnaire. You should remember that there are no fundamentally good or bad personalities, as each trait description has potential advantages and disadvantages. To help you reflect on these, you have also been given some questions which ask you to consider the implications of your trait descriptions. Other people viewing your personality profile will not be able to see these.
This trait refers to the extent to which you prefer novelty versus convention. Approximately 24.2% of respondents have a lower openness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who dislikes needless complexity, and prefers the familiar over the unusual. You might say that you are more conservative than many, but not to an extreme level, and that you value practical outcomes over flighty imagination.
Reflective question: How do you respond to people who have lots of new ideas?
This trait refers to the extent to which you prefer an organised, or a flexible, approach in life. Approximately 3.5% of respondents have a lower conscientiousness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is impulsive and whimsical, and fine with it! From your responses it appears that you would say that sometimes decisions need to be made quickly, and that you make them quicker than most! You would say you are zany, colourful, and just generally great fun to be with... as long as someone isn't relying on you to get some work done.
Reflective question: How do you feel when you are working with someone who is very organised?
This trait refers to the extent to which you enjoy company, and seek excitement and stimulation. Approximately 3.5% of respondents have a lower extraversion raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is quiet and somewhat withdrawn. Your answers describe you as someone who doesn't need lots of other people around to have fun, and can sometimes find that people are tiring.
Reflective question: How do you like to spend your spare time?
This trait refers to the way you express your opinions and manage relationships. Approximately 16% of respondents have a lower agreeableness raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who is willing to make difficult decisions when necessary, and will point out when something is wrong no matter what other people might feel. Your responses suggest that you would say that you can be tough and uncompromising.
Reflective question: When others are experiencing problems, what do you do?
This trait refers to the way you cope with, and respond to, life's demands. Approximately 98.6% of respondents have a lower neuroticism raw percentage than yours. From the way you answered the questions, you seem to describe yourself as someone who tends to be more self-conscious than many. Based on your responses, you come across as someone who can find it hard to not get caught up by anxious or stressful situations. You might say that you are in touch with your own feelings.
Reflective question: When do you not feel in control of your emotions?

In a previous post I stated that I thought I cracked the Numbers for the Thumbnails on Youtube but I was wrong. But I do think I have found out another way but I will have to test that.
New video coming soon

EDIT: THIS HAS BEEN FOUND TO BE FALSE
just leaving this up for Historical reasons
soon i will have a new video up on youtube.com, this video will be testing out a Hypothesis i have about the Thumbnail selection.
My theory is that it still selects at 1/4 , 1/2 , and 3/4 like always but this time instead of smack dab in the middle of the times it spreads 5 sec before and after those points, at random.
Now the question will be how did i come up with these numbers. Well, for the last videos i have been putting in small clues that i would see but others would dismiss as normal. in screen shots simple mouse moves that i do not normally do.
What i have noticed is, The Thumbnails that i can select from are always ± about 5 sec’s from the exact 25% 50% or 75% points. so later today or tomorrow i will be posting a video on my youtube channel Reviewing Windows Live Suit, with a little how to on Windows Live Writer.
To those that are interested This is a low quality pic from Twit pic that should be a thumbnail. The only difference is i will have a Start menu and a Widget dock over the Image.
Click on the Thumbnail to see a High quality image.
My next Youtube video will have a delay for posting to the blog by a few hours. I will be using that video to shoot the next video showing how to use Windows Live Writer.
