I use LinkedIn a lot. While there is a lot of dumb noise around people trying to thought-leader, there is also a lot of professional content I find useful. I'd rather have the annoying hustle-grind-thought-leader BS than the political content I find on twitter / facebook. I meet a lot of people on LinkedIn and do indeed find a lot of professional connections. I find its useful to always be chatting with people outside my company, for a number of reasons, and set aside time to do these calls. I don't actively maintain a resume, I use my LinkedIn profile for this purpose. I think it's important to be "heads up" with your career networking (interviewing?) a lot, always chatting about potential opportunities, preparing for next steps, learning about problems others are solving, etc.
