Came across this site where you can search for jobs that are advertised in twitter - http://www.twitterjobsearch.com/
Twitter is just like any other social media opportunity. If you have invested time and energy in blogging then twitter would just be an extension

i always ignore agents when the request to add me on linked in. i feel adding them kind of defeats the purpose of linkedin, part of which is to remove the middlemen.

Looking forward to the new linkedin profile - 10-1 you get agents requesting you as a connection.
Not sure if there's a tourettes support group for you to join, best of luck with that.
