@jaklumen @Tdorey @actualham @Dan_Blick @fgraver @Autumm I feel we don't talk nearly enough about introversion in networks. I'm the same. My head fills up and I stop thinking. @mahabali has thought about this a bit too.

So I'm really interested in what makes a network hospitable to both introverts and extroverts by design?

I was thinking about this.
A. What makes any space hospitable for both intro/extroverts?
B. I assume it is not a binary of course but asking ppl at both extremes to share their good/bad experiences and aspirations might be an interesting research project to pursue.
C. I think Autumm was interested in this topic awhile ago.
D. Is introversion a stable preference or contextual one? (and extroversion?)

@mahabali @Tdorey @katebowles @actualham @fgraver @Autumm @jaklumen I love this question. I hope to come back to this with a thoughtful response soon. I'm very interested in this topic.

@Dan_Blick @mahabali @Tdorey @katebowles @actualham @Autumm @jaklumen These are interesting questions. I'm an introvert, fairly shy, and quite familiar with "impostor syndrome". I've learned to live with all these things, but they combine to make me avoid social gatherings with people I don't know well.

Online is different. I can jump in here in a way I would never dream of irl.

@fgraver @Dan_Blick @mahabali @Tdorey @katebowles @actualham @Autumm @jaklumen I find it interesting that sometimes people feel more comfortable online than irl, that those who are more introverted irl might be more extroverted online. I have this tendency myself, and really grabbed onto some open online spaces like a course called #etmooc (where I met @fgraver & @Patlockley) b/c I was able to communicate so much more deeply online than I would ever do w/strangers in person. Why might that be?
