Today I found out about tweetlater.com It lets you set up an automatic response when someone starts to follow you. You can also set it so you automatically follow everyone that follows you. There are some other things too but I haven't figured anything else out yet.
I've never experimented with them before though I've heard of them. Are they are a relatively new player?

Just joined twitter today - newmate - looking forward to keeping abreast of this thread and finding out more
I use twitter to let people know about new blog post and just what I'm up to. I like many here don't sell on it because I find it very annoying and have stopped following a few people because they just tried to sell too much.
SES San Jose Twitter Video: http://videos.webpronews.com/2008/08/19/ses-michael-twitter/ The goal is to get your twits to reach a follower's cell phone. These are far more likely to get read. Focus on Quality over Quanity. This saves you time and your followers. Most people's twits are about absolutely nothing so adding something of value definitely generates interest.
For those of you wanting to use twitter as a marketing tool. If you need to grow your network you could use a tool like twitain.com
Twitter is a great place to announce freebies/discounts and you can see the influx of visitors to your site. Its quite easy to gather a following and I think a very good marketing tool ,thanks to the media hype.
