How to get over my social awkwardness?

I am just like you.i am shy too.even i m scared in talking to people thinking the same as u do.so i think u shud be on social networking site there u need nt to be shy of nything and u get all the ppl that u want to know.okay the best thing that u shud do is that dont think about what people will think but u shud kno what u r saying and be confident while u r talking.what people think is not our busines if we keep thinking lyk that we wil go mad.u might be thinking that if i said something stupid then they spread this among people,and people wud believe that but they wudnt they wil luk at ur individuality themselves.
