I don't use it right now. But I need to learn about participating in it for micro-isv, that article helped my ignorant self. Without using an account presently and just having Google alerts etc. with some keywords, I have continually seen there is a lot of information tucked into people's Twitter comments (especially regarding my current research field). So in some sense, I'm stuck with it whether I even participate or not. And in the future with a consumer product, I think it is a great idea to respond to people's comments about the product (positive or negative) if you can get alerts as they happen. Regarding finding helpful information there, I guess it really depends on how intensely you're tracking certain topics (and how much the speed of knowing new developments matters). Agreeing to constantly and actively participate by adding comments (especially not @ someone)? That's a different thing...
