I use it quite often for making interactive admin consoles for  
embedded systems. It is quite convenient when you want a "rich UI" w/o  
having to have external software on a PC or a webserver running on  
your embedded board. The paradigm is simple, ssh to the board, then  
run the command line ncurses app. Very handy.
