Where Twitter is today and where it will be in a year are 2 different things and getting in there and using it as part of an overall strategy makes sense. The more I use Twitter the more I like the ability to cover a lot of ground in scanning posts. The key is following the right "experts" in a field and seeing then who follows them. I have put together a great group of HR and benefits pros that I follow and find the conversations that evolve interesting and easy to scan. Personally I see less use in Facebook, again it is part of a strategy and a lot more value in LinkedIn and having a group setup there. Most of your employees and customers will be there as well. In the end a tool like Twitter - or a business version of it - allows you to create secure personalized communication channels that can target just clients, or just prospects or just 1 client w/ info they need or even the CFO of one client w/ the info they need. That is where I see the real value long term for business...truly unique channels that users subscribe to getting out of the email clutter.
