Becoming a Social Developer
summary
Claim: developers want to talk but seldom start conversations; a repeatable method gets conversations going with about a 90% success rate in practice. Steps are: introduce yourself, ask what they do, ask what technologies excite them. Tactics that actually work: put away devices (no more force field), join lone people or lines, invite newcomers into circles, introduce people to each other. Outcome: many quick contacts, occasional lasting collaborations, and noticeably bigger networks after applying these steps.
