My thinking is that the email alias would only be used for notifications of new followers as well as direct messages or any other administrative notification from Twitter. The DMs can also be seen in HootSuite. All that being said, if we're having the same or even somewhat-close-to-same set of people oversee/maintain/manage the various social media outlets, then I see more value in having a common socialmedia@xxxx type address. If that's not the case, then perhaps separate aliases for each social media outlet is better.

My personal vote would be for fun / cool / meaningful because, I mean, who wants to be the opposite of those things ?
