They're not mutually exclusive. Twitter and Linkedin serve wildly
different purposes.

Right now I'm a member of a number of Linkedin groups, and all they've
provided me has been noise ("so how can I make money from this open
source thing?") and ads for Forbes magazine subscriptions.

In any case, Scott's original question appears to already be answered by
the existence of a Twitter account called "GTA_Linux" -- don't know who
runs it.
