Twitter's been called "instant gratification" for online social networkers, so "What Are You Doing" on Twitter?
I use Twitter to communicate with others quickly via "Tweets" (short, 140 characters, status updates).
I share quick notes with my followers and read updates of people I'm following as well.
How are you using Twitter and why did you start using it? How has it benefited you or your business?
If you're looking for work, has it helped your job search?
I look forward to your comments!
In the meantime, here's a link to replies from LinkedIn users:

There's Such a Thing: a Flexible & Enjoyable Survival Job!
Many of us are just trying to make ends meet lately!
Today I met a guy with, what seemed to be, a flexible & enjoyable "survival" / "in-between jobs" job. I chatted with him a bit.
He was a Census Bureau Field Representative. His job is to verify single-family home addresses in neighborhoods. Of course, I asked him about his job. I'm always curious about people and the work they do.
He was walking around at his own pace(on his own schedule with no boss around) and seemed to be enjoying his work. He was alone and looked very comfortable in his beach hat, walking shoes, and khaki shorts!
It seemed like a great option for a 2nd job, college student job, or "survival job".
Most important: a nice way to make ends meet (outside of retail or fast-food) if you're in-between jobs.
Not many jobs allow that flexibility; trek comfortably around town, meet new people, and enjoy a nice sunny day! (these openings are Nationwide; not just Seattle!)

Job Club 2.0 or Face-to-Face?
I heard an NPR radio show today about job clubs. Job clubs are nothing new, but they are become more popular because of rising un-employment.
Job Spot Seattle (and West Coast) on LinkedIn, Yahoo, Plaxo, and Facebook are all virtual Job Clubs. Like face-to-face job clubs, Job Spot members support each other by sharing knowledge, advice, and contacts to combat unemployment and under-employment!
Virtual is convenient and all-inclusive, but I'd like to form an in-person job club too! There's something about in-person networking that just works. I'm in process of forming a job club and will keep you posted of my progress or any updates as available!
In the meantime, feel free to share your thoughts or ideas.
Happy Networking!
