Another purpose of a TXT record is to verify that an email message is sent by the domain owner and from a reliable web server - this is the so-called SPF security, which prevents any electronic address set up under your domain name to be forged and unauthorized people to send out spam making it look like it was sent from your own mailbox. You could include any other info you want to be associated with your domain address in a TXT record as well.
