I don't mean to come off as dismissive but the article seemed to be talking about communication within a team or with customers and users in a face to face environment. Being able to post on a blog well is not going to get you very far talking to project owners/users to understand business problems. I think social media has an extremely limited usefulness when it comes to determining how well someone can communicate within a real world face to face business environment. I would rather rate a potential employee's ability to communicate on the 15-30 minutes I have to talk to them rather than their social media footprint.
