Archetypes is an interesting new* concept in social networking.
An archetype, according to the website, “
is a pattern of behavior. It explains who you are and how you engage with the world around you.” The archetypes listed on their website are Creative, Athlete, Rebel, Caregiver, Visionary, Queen/Executive, Spiritual, Fashionista, Advocate, and Intellectual.
Discover an entire universe tailored specifically to your unique blend of archetypes. You'll be able to find new things, make new friends, find old friends and share all the things you love.
From
The Concept page:
Once you know your archetypes, the world becomes much easier to
navigate. Based on your archetypes, you can make more inspired choices
about everything from relationships to excelling at work to choosing a
piece of clothing. Through the prism of those archetypes, the world is
clearer. You can live a truly empowered life knowing which doors you
should walk through and which are best left unopened. Knowing your
archetypes gives you the vocabulary to help you understand yourself and
others better.
*I'm not for sure when the site came into being; if one of the archetypes was "procrastination", then that would fit me because the date on the saved URL was back in early February of this year and I just never got around to working up this post. Here are my results from the quiz, but I bet if I took it again, it would be different - almost every quiz I take and then re-take is that way.
