I’d say you’re mostly right. I’ve used org mode a lot in the past. Now I use One Note, which I’m sure would draw a lot of complaints from this group, but it works for me. I think use whatever works best for you, try different things and stick with what you end up liking.
I agree it's good to get people to talk about themselves but as an introvert don't you just hate when someone does that to you? I know I do. I think it would be better to balance it out a little. Sometimes I try to come up with some good stories to tell. Keep them short, to the point, and funny. I think people appreciate that. They will usually add comments or tell their own story and off you go. I like to prepare a few beforehand. Don't be boorish and let the other person interject as much as possible. Try to keep away from controversial or political topics, unless you want to take on that kind of conversation. If you do be nice and respectful of the other side of your argument.
