When I got my new nexus tablet, I didn't install the facebook or twitter app, and I enjoyed using the tablet without feeling the need to keep switching to those apps to check nothing new had been posted. I also removed the facebook app from my phone and it sure does make a difference. If you're in the habit of constantly checking fb/twitter, removing them from your portable devices is an easy way to lessen your habit without cutting yourself off completely. I still have access to fb on my laptop but it's something I check every 2 days or so, rather than something I constantly checked when I was momentarily disengaged. I find it's lead to me being less sidetracked/distracted when I'm doing something (either when producing work or consuming content)
