Look — in the offline world you won’t get any valuable advice if badly connected, either. We all have to connect first to profit from our network.

I think there will always be demand for e.g. shopping recommendations that require less input / effort. Can Twitter provide this?

And because Twitter enables you to ask for real and “live” recommendations from people you know, it offers so much more than Yelp, Qype, Brownbook and others of that ilk. Not to mention a much easier way to ger a relevant assessment of a business you want to deal with than you’d get fishing through hundreds of page results from Google.
