I have Facebook, twitter, and myspace...with myspace being the strongest with over 10,000+ friends. I tour the US and it is way for me to communicate and blog to the general public. I have privacy setting set so that if your not 18 or older, then you can see anything.
It's sort of hard for me to believe that I'm the only one with that opinion, but in two years time I have amassed a rather big following. On my website, I have hits from between 45 and 75 countries each month...and the traffic is amazing. So if some of you are looking for the type of client who tend to get to know you and want to spend numerous hours and days with you. This will upgrade your image. If you plan on simply working locally, then it might just be a waste of time...
here is my myspace page:

here is my facebook page: (I think this is more for individuals than businesses, but it does work and my clients to follow me here to)

then of course there is twitter, which allows you to up date guys in seconds, and you can do it easily from your phone...

So...I half expect to hear that I'm crazy, but, as with any business, you have none unless the client finds you.....
