I've found social media (Twitter and FB) just so incredibly valuable both personally and financially I usually don't even bother arguing about it.
Random examples: Sold some website classification tech after a SM conversation, got company funded after being introduced on SM, met customers and partners on SM etc.
I'd strongly, strongly dispute the tag of social media marketer though. I just post what I want and interact with whoever I want. If something great comes of it then great, but otherwise I feel better after complaining about random issues in Javascript libraries or some crazy thing I did wrong in a Kaggle competition.
I'm very aware of the trade-off of social media. But they are trade-offs.
