I don't disagree, not at all. But on the other side it shows that you are active in the way that you attend conferences or visit web sites like UT, and that you are not a "loner". However, having said that, I know many extremely good programmers who are "loner" by the definition I just gave, and I don't mean it in a negative way. So if I were the one who gave the interview, and if I asked that question, it would be of no value as such, it would be more to get an overall impression of the person.
