Most of us have probably taken our fair share of personality tests on the Internet, but this one had an interesting format. You give your responses by moving an arrow on a slider, plotting a point on a coordinate plane, and other analog stuff like that.
It felt like it was just the right length and asked things in several different ways, so even though I felt like I was contradicting myself at times, the results seemed to be pretty accurate.

It all started with this site: How many of the 50 states can you name in 10 minutes?
I saw it a couple of weeks ago, but didn't post about it because I wasn't really impressed. First of all, it was kind of easy--I named all 50 in less than 5 minutes. Then you had to wait for the time to run out, and then it didn't even verify your answers. It just popped up a list of the correct answers and you were supposed to check them yourself. Boooring.
But apparently the Internet thought it was the greatest thing ever, because similar tests started popping up everywhere. And the copycats are much better. First of all, they are more challenging: World Countries, African Nations, UN Member States. Also, they sport a much improved interface. The correct answers are verified as you go, and it keeps a running tally for you of how many are left. Very nice.
Not to be outdone, Ironic Sans went back and spiffed up their original States quiz, so now it's high-tech like the others.
