    I use xml for menu systems and content.. in a sort of a crude database fashion. I really like except (until now) i couldn't update it on line, which would be really good for clients and me;)

    a lot of people use it as a way of storing newsfeeds, that way other people can gain access to a file which can then be draw in different ways. i.e. someone could use your data in flash or html and so on, very easily, without asking for permissions, as normally it is a read only. Unlike really databases that require the setup of a file that can gather the data i.e. php or asp and so on..
