I'm not 100 percent sure what one will gain me, given that my currency is mostly just my CV, which I can email, and my publications, of which I have one.

All else has a good probability of being pissing into the wind. Not because all my ideas are bullshit, because I don't think they are; it is because a lot of scientific professional networking seems to be done through email or in person, and I work with squishy things, not things you can put in a file. Putting it out on the internet just seems haphazard.

I have a LinkedIn profile which has done approximately squat for me right now.

Also there's something off-puttingly hipster about having a painstakingly curated "online identity".
