23andMe/SNPs: so I recently decided I might as well get around to getting my own data since the price has not dropped much for a while and I figured out how to work around the state restrictions. I now have my raw SNP data, and I'll be posting some random notes soonish. Does anyone have any ideas for what to do with this data?

Not to derail the post, but I saw on your blog you had IQ testing done. I just had it done, about to get the results.

Do you have any recommendations for resources that will help me make sense of the results? My motivation in taking the test was to see what types of problems/domains I might be good at (relative to my own performance in other domains).

Have you read through the Wikipedia articles? Often a good starting point. I can't really recommend any resources - curse of expertise at this point.
