Publishing the challenge solution to an audience beyond the classroom is a key element of CBL, because it "raises the bar" for students. It's been an interesting concept to work through with teachers.

I've been using it to keep track of my passwords, generate new ones, store credit card information, and identity info for auto-filling forms.
