My answer: Twitter has many practical applications for both research and marketing. I don't, however, think it is imperative for every professional to invest the time or energy to become a super Tweeter. Making the committment to Tweet multiple times a day really depends on what you do, and the degree to which self/company promotion is important to your goals. At the very least though, using Twitter with a conference or topic hashtag (such as SOCAP's #symp09) is a powerful way to maintain an electronic and ubiquitous bulletin board. I see this as a great way for SOCAPers to use the tool in a very practical, and manageable way. I plan to keep an eye on the stream during the symposium.
