The real differences begins when some prefer, choice (because one wants, enjoys it) to stay home coding instead of go out and socialize. This is how great software projects, like nginx, created and evolved. Find and take a look of a video of lectures given by Igor (nginx's author) and you will, probably, understand - he isn't a public person. You should be a little bit autistic (say, near Asperger's) in order to produce something extraordinary. It is just a mater of time, energy and concentration. And practicing, practicing, practicing. Analogy with public activity, like a politics is rather stupid. You need totally different skill set for any public relations, while those skills are requiring a lot of time of practicing, practicing and practicing. Professional communication is as difficult as professional programming, btw. man NLP. ^_^
