Re: Developing conversational skills post 30 years

Hi,

I'm ok with conversation but I never used to be; though in groups I still tend to be the quiet one. One of the things that helped the most was a couple of articles I read many years ago. One...

I've been thinking about jumping ship some time now, I don't think it is as good as it used to be. I use firefox and chrome at the moment; I usually have them both open.
