Quora - destroyed (mostly by Indians)
Linkedin - destroyed (-do-) to help in any form of professional networking
. See https://twitter.com/StateOfLinkedIn
FB/INsta - On its way to destruction in current form. Too high
advertisement+noise/signal ratio. I do post random stuff once in a while,
mostly fun stuff  and my reach is very limited so I am not sure why I do
it. The absolute idiotic stuff gets some engagement if one goes by likes
and the things I consider deep or insightful has none. SO my main use is as
a book mark maybe?
twitter - has the highest potential if used properly but I am still trying
to figure out how to optmize the tar pit it has become
