I'm not implying that introversion and shyness are mutually exclusive but there is a difference between the two concepts. The article in the following link says it well: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article.cfm?id=the-power-of-introverts
I'd also like to add that these are also fuzzy categories since there are many individuals that can be both introverted, extroverted, and shy depending on the context of the situation. Also some people on the Autistic spectrum actually do like being around people only they don't have much success in doing so. These contradictions make terms like "people-person" hard to define.
