Github can host the project website for you as well, and a wiki.

The one disadvantage is that it's not open source whereas gitorious is.
Hosting your git repo on github doesn't tie you down to anything as you
can always move it somewhere else if you want to. But the more you come
to depend on github's extra features like the issue tracker, the wiki,
etc., the more you're becoming dependent on a proprietary platform.
