If I could add anything, it would be to engage those that you admire and respect for what they do and how they do it. When you begin to "meet" this like minded people and tell them that you thought the way they handled a blog post or really enjoyed following a conversation on Twitter, they will more than likely engage you and become a willing teacher when you have a question for them. I've seen it happen with my own personal entrance into social media. I wasn't just new to social media, I was new to real estate...and everywhere I turned, I met someone who had an answer to my questions. Of course, once you're feeling more comfortable, return those same favors to the other newbies you meet. Great article Benn.
