It's really at the point where you need to prepare/review for the technical interviews at most companies. If people are going to review coding interview questions/books/strategy then to compete we'll have to do the same.
I myself have been working through cracking the coding interview in an attempt to migrate from upstate new york to the bay area. Maybe I wouldn't bother with positions that demanded white boarding if I already had a position over there and could be selective but maybe not. It kind of feels like it's all part of the game at this point.

It's true that for most jobs, most day-to-day work doesn't involve knowing standard algorithms and data structures. But being willing to crack open a book and learn something new shows you're willing to prepare when it counts, and that you're capable of learning. Plus you get to learn some cool things along the way, some of which may even be useful some day!
