I think a use case is broadcast type notifications. You setup a private twitter where you have to approve the followers. Then they can get instant notifications on mobile, email, web page, etc. Also it is mode of communication that is not dependent on your network. Your network can be completely down and people can still receive a twitter message. Granted the Remedy integration probably doesn't help much if the network is down unless you have a modem on your Remedy server (we did until about 4 years ago).
