I've been watching a very interesting series on the late night Beeb about the internet and how it affects our performance and behaviour. At the end of last night's episode viewers were invited to take a short test here:

Having just spent a fairly rigorous 10 minutes max doing the tests I have been analysed thus:
You are a Web Elk
Slow-moving - Web Elks like you take their time finding exactly the right morsels of information - just like the real-world elk who carefully browses for shoots and leaves to eat.
Sociable - Real-world elks are social and stay in herds to protect themselves from predators. When you browse the web you are also a social creature, often using social networks, or other sites whose content is created by its users, as sources of information.
Specialised - Web Elks perform best when they focus on one thing at a time, rather than trying to multitask. Just as the real-world Elk is perfectly specialised for its environment, you have learned that while the web makes it possible to multitask, it's not always the best approach
So there you have it. I would have preferred being a moose, but, elk it is.
What web animal are you?
