what set said.
i use it a lot to keep in touch with acquaintances with whom i don't necessarily have a personal relationship. i follow a lot of local/community businesses; bike shops, restaurants, delis, etc. places i go on a regular bases. i also find it very handy for staying in the know of what is going on in my community and city... i follow municipal ward councilors, community improvement and safety groups, swell forecasters that also let me know what's happening at local beaches, local art and entertainment promoters. the list is endless.
i do find that quality control is essential, otherwise you get bombarded with useless shit you don't want to sift through. i keep my follow list relevant and regularly edit it. if someone posts a lot of shit often, they're out.

Is it still good for networking in 2013?
Seems like everyone just uses Instagram instead.

Do you tweet random thoughts or re-tweet smarter people to make yourself feel good?

I guess I don't understand why anyone would re-tweet another person's tweet.

Twitter has many uses here are a few:
- if you have interests its a great resource for those said interests - whatever they may be. And you get info from leaders of whatever field it may be.
- if you run a business its great for getting latest info on products, technology, services etc.
- if you run a business or are setting up a brand its a fantastic marketing tool on so many levels.
- I got bored writing them - if you cannot see the benefit of Twitter then its prob not for you.fadein11
- no need to run a business to be interested in these things.doesnotexist

I use it constantly for news and tech updates. You don't need to actually tweet to use twitter
