One advantage of online for the timid types is that it's easier to get your turn to talk. You don't have to wait for your turn and you can compose your message better so you get your point across better - not always easy to do in face to face(to face to face to face to...) conversations.
But what do you mean with online? Is instant messaging also online? Usually if I know my conversation partner better then I can obviously say more than what I say in forums.
