Er, no it's not you tool.
How do you think most of the information got out recently about the stuff going on in China, and Tibet? Twitter and Facebook. Because it's fast and easy. Maybe YOU have no use for it, but that doesn't make it useless.
It's an incredibly effective news source, even though yes, a lot of it can be crap sometimes - but when dealing with issues like the stuff going on in China/Tibet/Iran etc it's kind of useful, especially to people living outside those countries who have relatives there.
