Yeah, I created a Twitter account around 2010 but I never really used it.  I was never really interested in seeing the posts there, especially since they're limited to being very short.

I actually find value in LinkedIn for job-related networking.  Over the years, I've found at least a couple jobs when recruiters found my profile there. I've also kept in touch with some people I used to work with there.
