Do you want to know if you're happy (but already know that you're lazy)?

Posted January 15, 2003 5:08 PM.

A few weeks ago there was an article on the BBC's site called The Formula for Happiness which explained that scientists had somehow managed to work out precisely the right way to calculate how happy someone was based upon several core criteria of their lives. This story has been picked up by boingboing.net and ran yesterday. But if you don't want to go through the whole palaver of calculating the whole thing by hand (as indeed I didn't) you can now go and have it calculated for you by DotCode's Calculate your happinesss.
