1. Ask easy, direct questions. Ask questions that can be answered in even a single word to break the ice.

2. Ask follow up questions. Make sure they are open ended questions that start with words like "how" or "what." Use whatever answer the person gives to the easy question as potential fuel for your follow questions.

In just two simple steps, you can keep a conversation going and keep the other person talking about their favorite topics. Questions are a key element in how to make small talk with friends new and old.
