It's a convenient way to add a quick todo or a note in the browser, which I use almost all of the time.

I added a bookmark to Chrome with that gist's content as the url, and when I need to write something down, I just start typing content in a new tab.

contenteditable can also be used to paste parts of websites, and it takes the formatting and images with it, so it's a cool way to compose something from many places.

E.g. when you need several restaurants descriptions and maps and you don't want to mess with Word or OpenOffice.
