Frienster has this great gadget where you can vote on your friends. It is set up as a multiple choice questionaire where your friends are randomly picked and paired.
For example you are asked to pick:
Who is happier, John or Jason.
Who is prettier, Bill or Bob.
Who would you marry, Joe or Ted.
Who is funnier Lucy or Jane.

When I take the questionaire all my friends are randomly paired. When my friends take it I appear randomnly in their questionaire.

As enough of your friends do it the random pairings start to create a great picture of how the world perceives you. Because the results are pooled it is an anonymous process, nobody feels bad about their choices and they stay honest. It is really a very accurate mirror of how you come across to the world.

I rank consistently the same ever since I chose to allow myself to be in my friends’ questionnaires:

Out of all my friends I dominate the number one place in these traits:

smartest
cutest
most studious

And I am always at the bottom for these traits:

most fashionable
happiest

I’d have to say this is a pretty accurate description of me. I’m a cute nerd.

What is strange is that I look at the rankings of other people and they seem totally off. People who I think are total losers are scoring first in “Most likely to succeed” and total space cadets are scoring in “Most punctual”.

It is strange that for me the scoring seems off for others but right on for me….hmm….download In God’s Hands
