In particular, I think the one about making eye contact is something more people should practice - you know the old joke: how can you tell the extroverted geek in a room full of geeks? They're the one looking at the *other* person's shoes. :-) Good tips and ideas, Daniele!

Unfortunately, the only way to get over that fear is to do it. And do it often. Like everything in life, I suppose :) I learned that there really is no magic formula except to just keep positive and try again. I'll be missing you guys at PCTO but at least there's live Tweeting!

It's reassuring to think I might not be the only one dying to connect with people, yet completely at a loss (and full of fear) as to how to do it without risking complete rejection and humiliation. Thinking back on my various interactions with you, I can recall how good I've felt each time you've approached with a friendly face and a sincere question or comment -- so I know that these tips will work for those brave enough to use them (or maybe it's just your natural born daniele-charm) Have a great time at PCTO. We will be missing all of you!! Andrea xoxo Daniele,
