Mick Stanic (he of Splatt and G'Day World fame) quit his job before Christmas.

He has started his new company - it has a website and everything.

Now Mick, I don't know about the name Principius - sounds too much like Festivus.

Anyway, good luck with the business mate!

What else to do on a lazy Monday afternoon, but take an online quiz or three. Thanks to Geoff for the pointers.

Your Dominant Intelligence is Logical-Mathematical Intelligence

You are great at finding patterns and relationships between things. Always curious about how things work, you love to set up experiments. You need for the world to make sense - and are good at making sense of it. You have a head for numbers and math ... and you can solve almost any logic puzzle. You would make a great scientist, engineer, computer programmer, researcher, accountant, or mathematician.

I signed up with LinkedIn many many months ago. Interestingly I have been contacted mainly for the folks I know, with people wanting me to refer them onto others.

Out of curiosity I checked my status today to see how big a network I had - apparently I can make contact with 555,100+ professionals. My summary is as follows:

Your Network of Trusted Professionals

You are at the center of your LinkedIn Network. Your connections can help you make contact with 555,100+ professionals — here’s how your network breaks down:
