I think this is a good usability tool and even it you cannot get your own site to the top of Google you can at least give yourself a nice warm feeling and pretend that you have! Keep up the great work with the DeadSite? Blog, enjoying reading it.
Well if google were to in fact start using these in factoring their results, then companies are going to start to have to make their websites more relevant for the content they are optimizing for.

One thing that might hurt some smaller companies is the fact that more users might promote a more well known brand to the top of the list for simply knowing it. Leaving a little independent company towards the bottom.
Hopefully google does the right thing and keeps this user specific.
