just found this little trick, its quite fascinating, but i dunno if thats all it takes to decide which part of your brain you use.

link to article

I myself am a right-brainer, but i managed to spin it with some blinking and tough thoughts.

Left brainer, but with some focus managed to get it spin the other way for a few seconds.
It has been reported that some victims of rape, during the act, would retreat into a fantasy world from which they could not WAKE UP. In this catatonic state, the victim lived in a world just like their normal one, except they weren't being raped. The only way that they realized they needed to WAKE UP was a note they found in their fantasy world. It would tell them about their condition, and tell them to WAKE UP. Even then, it would often take months until they were ready to discard their fantasy world and PLEASE WAKE UP

Mine span clockwise when I first looked at it so I'm a right brainer, but it's not difficult to make it swap. Guess either it's a poor test or I'm somewhere near the middle. Or I'm a no brainer [censored smiley]

Was going clockwise and I found it pretty hard to shift it at first... just sort of stare blankly and it swaps. :p

It's actually a trick of depth perception, you can get it to spin the other way if you move your eyes up and down fast.

I think, therefore I don't care,

Or I'm a no brainer

Drats! That was the punch line I was relying on.

Really I think when your thinking deeply that's your left side working.... if your extremely emotional or aggressive then that's right sided. I think left is conscious and right is unconscious

There is some research out that says that it's not a matter of Left and Right brain but of more specific parts of the brain.

I think it's more of a preference to one or the other a person can develop both.
I'm exhibit qualities attributed to both left and right.

I couldn't look at the picture for very long I got dizzy.
