Nowadays social media becomes an important part of our life, same for the students. While a lot of students are stuck in Facebook 50% of the studying time, they should start using those social medias that will help them develop. As Mike said, it is a skill, it is interesting and it will be beneficial.
I totally agree with Mike that LinkedIn and Twitter are both good to start. Through LinkedIn, I have made contacts with hundreds of professionals and alumni which has given me a good idea how I should start with my career. Twitter can be very random, yes, but it is also where some business people and companies post their latest news, which means you get first hand news.
I personally do not Twitter but I follow people on Twitter, you are more than welcome to add me on LinkedIn where I am more active with.
