Hi Neal, do you still feel you are a shy guy? Or, has the shyness all disappeared?

Cheers, Sam

Very cool post! I definitely need help on Networking as my shy in person persona likes to hide. And definitely all cool people you have listed there.

Neal, I hope the video I put out today helps your lack of tech skills. Please if you still need help, I am more than happy to do the task for you.

Interesting post… I also always used to think of these network events as cheesy things that you go to to drink some cocktails and schmooze with people.

However, real networking is about much more than that and I think you’ve captured it pretty well. When it comes to getting a job, or getting help in life, or for pretty much anything, it is nice to have a network.

I am just starting out with my own blog and I am surprised at just how many blogs there are out there; I’ve already found some quite interesting ones just by browsing around, looking at the comments, and visiting people’s sites. There is definitely much more of a “community” aspect to it than I believed!

Good to hear others getting the word out about networking not being this icky concept of shaking hands, slapping backs, and being fake just to get what you want. This isn’t politics, it’s networking.

Neal,

Sage advice from the Pilgrim – as usual.

I was one of those who was afraid/uncertain – not to mention too shy too – to ask for any help from other bloggers.

Although I started officially blogging in Dec 2008, my blog really didn’t start to grow until four months later when I finally got the nerve up to begin networking and reaching out for help!

Terrific post, and I look forward to working with you!

All the best,

Len
