While resumes are becoming obsolete, the actual cover letter can tell a lot about a person. One person might write the same stock cover letter for most of their job applications while someone else might personalize their cover letters for the particular company and job they are applying for. Which one do you think cares more about getting the job? Overall I agree that resumes are not a tell-tale sign of one's qualifications and personality, but if you are "Google-able", then at least you have something to supplement your resume (hopefully in a positive light).
