I've used them for some searching related functions.  Something like
'cut' in prolog so if I didn't like the first match, I called the
continuation the searching function returned, and it restarted the
calculation, returning the next item that matched transparently.  Made
the code somewhat cleaner.  Well, if you understand call/cc.
