Surprisingly, it's great for websites and companies to allow their fans and visitors to keep track of them. My site, Free Stuff Headquarters, has a Twitter page now (both of those are links), simply because it works. Twitter has become popular because of its cell phone convenience, and it really is a good marketing tool now. "Tweet" will soon become an industry standard as fast as Facebook coined "poke", and Myspace became a household word. Myspace was just in that new "chick flick" called "He's Just Not That Into You", where they said that "Myspace is the new 'booty call'". Two years from now or less, TV, movies, magazines, and music will all include the words "Twitter" or "tweet", correctly expecting that everybody will be able to relate it to Twitter.com. If you're not already using it, at least for marketing, you're not ahead of the game.
