There's a good question! It would provide me some insight in maintaining it as well.

I normally use it for one of these reasons:

1. Sharing code snippets which I want to be formatted nicely, e.g. in an email.
2. Sharing a document with a folding structure I want to preserve, useful for calling attention to parts of a file.
3. Sharing a document which I've marked up with an on-the-fly syntax, or for which most editors don't syntax highlight.
4. Showing off!


I've seen it used as the back-end for a syntax-highlighted pastebin:
