A book to read if you feel more like an introverted person but you need to network.

The title of this book could be renamed "How to interact with people if you're an introvert." But instead it is titled "How to Win Friends and Influence People." Check it out.

It has helped me a lot with meeting people and making friends. I now have my own Newbie Web Dev Meetup.

How to win friends and influence people is a great book. Another one that helped me is The Magic of Thinking Big by Dr. David J. Schwartz

I have two, the first one is The charisma myth by Olivia Fox Cabane, you can see one of her videos on YouTube so you get a better understanding of how worth it is her book and the other is How to win friends and influence people by Dale Carnegie.

I'm currently reading The magic of thinking big and I agree with Jason, it is awesome.
