It's interesting that only introverts waste time using computers, phones, and other devices to access networked communication methods. Quite astonishing that everyone I see online is an introvert. Extroverts have no use for these things, instead going outside and never touching anything electronic. When writing letters was more popular it was probably only ever done by introverts too. An extrovert, as a personality type, is far less likely to use every form of communication possible, instead relying on only face to face, real life dialog for their needs to tell other people what is going on in their heads.

Extroverts will tend to use computers to the extent that they help their real life activities, and won't invest significant amounts of time, energy, and psychological engagement into online activities, particularly interaction with online communities.
Uhm no? I'm easily the most extroverted person wherever I go, but still manage to waste quite some time on HN and reddit.

But now, let me tell you about meeeeeeeeeeeee...
