It's also useful for messing with the block explorer. Someone sent a transaction with the CLAMspeech '' and the image ended up rendered on the block explorer page.
I think they fixed that now though. Sad
Wow, that's cool... is it the dancing banana used mostly for logins?  Cheesy

The dancing banana was an interesting lesson; and just about the least malicious way to discover what could have been a serious issue.
Believe it or not, it was appreciated Grin


As an aside, CLAMspeech also provides an interesting opportunity for additional functionality on top of the protocol.
Services such as Counterparty become much simpler to implement with a ready-made field in which could be placed data to be parsed and consensus approved.
This, this is what could make this coin.

Another interesting use-case that we will likely be seeing sooner, rather than later: in client proof-of-existence.
For those not familiar, it would basically provide an on the block chain notary service where messages and files could be hashed and inserted to prove their existence.  Not a new idea or feature in the crypto space but having it in client and searchable via UI or RPC would be interesting if nothing else.
