personas, via mit

Several of my classes this semester are focusing on the effects of new media and devises on journalism. (Of course, I would blog about it.) Since the Web allows each of us to have an individual presence, we thought we'd use MIT's Personas tool to measure "how the Internet sees" each of us. The search technology determines the categories into which the information about you on the Web falls. It's interesting to see how you appear... try it!

P.S. I am loving MIT's home page photo.
