Colorgenics
Many thanks to Suzanne for finding this fascinating psychological profiling test at Colorgenics.
By picking rotating coloured cubes in the order that you find yourself attracted to them, the program returns an analysis that reads a bit like a horror scope, but the results seem to be a little more timely and focused. It's a relaxing process. Make sure your speakers are turned on so that you hear the gentle, hypnotic music playing while you choose your colours. Of course, I already knew that my life was stressful and I needed a vacation, but it was nice to have the program return results that confirmed it. Now, if only I were able to act on its recommendations...

Teoma
If you're at all like me, you probably use Google for 'first try' searches. Here's a link to a fairly new Search Engine named TEOMA. Both personal use and feedback from friends has been positive.
Founded in 2000 by a team from Rutgers University and acquired by Ask Jeeves in September 2001, Teoma determines the relevance of a site by 'same subject' links rather than just by any linkage.
Google searches are fine, but they just feel a little stale these days!
