Random Thoughts

Barry posted a quiz on his blog that he had made with MyStudiyo. I decided to check it out. It is a really, really simple way to make a quiz for students to take online. It is possible to include photos, as Barry did, and even video, I guess.

Once you have created the quiz, you have two choices: post it immediately to a blog or other site (as I did, with the result being my previous post) or copy the code and paste it (as I am doing in this post).

When you post the quiz to your site, you have the option of posting it to the sidebar. I tried this, but I couldn’t get the size right. My lack of skill, I am sure. It is a neat option, though.

I can see a ton of uses for this. It is very easy to use and can, apparently, do so much more than my simple quiz does. I want to play around with it more.

Oh! I forgot to tell you it’s free! Check it out!

Well, Tim tried it, so I decided I would, too. Turns out I am a book I would have expected:

You’re One Hundred Years of Solitude!

by Gabriel Garcia Marquez

Lonely and struggling, you’ve been around for a very long time.
Conflict has filled most of your life and torn apart nearly everyone you know. Yet there is something majestic and even epic about your presence in the world. You love life all the more for having seen its decimation. After all, it takes a village.

The description is a little strange, though. I don’t know quite how they got that out of my answers. Anyway, try it. It was fun!

65%How Addicted to Blogging Are You?

Rachel is much more addicted to blogging than I am, I guess.

My husband walked in as I was completing the quiz and saw the banner at the top which read Mingle2 100% Free Online Dating. I had to do some explaining. So you might want to complete the quiz when your partner is away!

Try it for yourself here.

OK. I haven’t taken one of these tests in a long time. And since my son and I just bought our Star Wars stamps, this seemed appropriate.

Your results:
You are R2-D2

R2-D2 70% Jabba the Hutt 64% Yoda 62% Qui-Gon Jinn 60% Chewbacca 60% Darth Maul 59% Luke Skywalker 59% Han Solo 59% C-3PO 58% Emperor Palpatine 57%

What you lack in height and communication skills, you make up for in industriousness, technical know-how and being there when others need you most.
