I use it to allow me to simultaneously run a persistent Irssi session and connect from AndChat on my phone, and they share a single IRC presence on the servers I use. It's a fantastic way to seamless move discussions between clients so that users on the other end don't have to deal with multiple nicks or interruptions as I move about. With my ZNC module for Notifo, I have the client_count_less_than condition set to 2. This means that it will only send notifications if my phone isn't connected, even though my Irssi client always is. I haven't found any other method that's smart enough to allow me to do this.
