An interesting survey today from goo Ranking, looking at what kinds of Facebook posts your friends want to Like and don’t want to Like.

Demographics

The survey was conducted during the 31st of October and the 1st of November 2013, and 1,060 people completed a private web-based questionnaire. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample. The percentage of Facebook users was not reported, although the current penetration of it is around 25% in Japan. Whether or not non-members answered by imagining what they might like to see and not see, or if they were excluded from the sample was also not reported.

Here is what people might be thinking you are when they call you an otaku:

Otaku no Heya

Blood type B is the worst blood type to have (if you are daft enough to believe such nonsense in the first place!), as described in this BBC Magazine article. I suppose I’ve been called a bit geeky now and again, but I never know if it is a compliment or not!
