More on the subject of outreach, not specific uses at companies, but...
A couple things might help get the word out:
- Add a community group in LinkedIn (shows up on profile searches)
http://www.linkedin.com/static?key=groups_faq
- Add a link on the wiki to the Facebook group about Hadoop
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Hadoop/9887781514
There's also a small but growing network of local user groups for
Amazon AWS, and much interest there for presentations and discussions
about Hadoop:

I'd be happy to help with any of those.
