I've seen it quite a bit on the forums and I think it is ok so long as it is relevant to the thread and not self promotional. I'd use it lightly though.

While I'm being a policeman, I can't help noticing that there's a lot of self-promotion that goes on in the forums. Especially the "other topics" forums, where quite often you'll find posts with not much more than the link to the person's Hub.Surely the forums are places to discuss...
