Perhaps one of the most common software developer stereotype is that they are aloof and anti-social. While that may be true for some, the fact that they are programmers is not the reason. There are varying underlying factors that causes people to behave in such a manner – and for sure, their occupation isn’t one.
Truly successful people are not limited only in their own bubble that they’ve built for themselves. In order to succeed in the real world, one must learn to make a few connections. One of the easiest ways to network is through social networking sites. It’s perfectly fine if you’re not a fan of mainstream social media sites like Facebook and Snapchat. There are other sites that are tailored specifically for software developers like you.
