Interesting. I’ve been both introverted and shy for so long that I didn’t know they were different things.
Somewhat off-topic: I’ve decided that with the rise of the internet, we no longer have just introverts and extroverts: we also have “textoverts.” A textrovert would be someone who is introverted in real life interaction, but much more verbose and interactive in text-based communication (Facebook, Twitter, etc). I decided that I was a textrovert after realizing that while I can happily go hours or days without speaking to anyone, I find it much harder to shut up online!
On-topic: I’m glad to see introverts receiving more positive attention in the last few years. I can’t count the times people told me that I needed to speak up, mingle, interact, and generally act like an extrovert. Fie on that!
I think you’re onto something, Joi.
Yes, yes, and yes.
Taking the Myers-Briggs enlightened me about the differences between introversion and shyness. I’m both as well and it’s easy to mix the two concepts up. There are plenty of shy extroverts, too.
Joi, you’re definitely on to something. I’m the same way online.
