人人都该掌握的十大社交技巧

No, not things that cost a ton of dough. I mean, give the things that cost you very little but are of massive value to others. Starting with compliments, all the way up to giving your time to your community. You'll feel like part of something bigger, something wonderfully social.
不是说让你掏空荷包。我是指分享一些花不了你多少钱却对他人意义重大的东西。可以从赞美之词开始，为你身边的人多花一些时间。你会逐渐想要分享一些更有社交价值的东西。

Some of us are addicted to Twit-book, and we know who we are. For those on the opposite side of the aisle, those who live in perpetual fear and suspicion of socializing on the interwebs, I'm here to say: Relax. Once upon a time, it may have been cool to resist the three-times-a-day invitations to join. Facebook and other social media won't replace actual, live, in-flesh human interaction. In fact, they can enhance your offline social life because nowadays that's how a lot of people are sharing important information. If you're shunning Facebook because you think it will kill your social life, you may be killing your social life.
有的人是微博控，你懂的。也有人刚好相反，他们对网络社交充满恐惧和怀疑。我想说，放轻松。从前，对社交网络满天飞的邀请视而不见是一件很酷的事情。脸谱网和其他的社交媒体不会取代真实生活中的人际互动。但事实上这些社交媒体会让你的线下的社会生活更加丰富，因为如今许多人都通过这种方式来分享一些重要信息。如果你逃避社交媒体只是因为担心它会毁掉你的社交生活，那么这也许才真的会毁掉你的社交生活。
