My is not interesting, except given the size. I use Pi as a mini HTPC (home theatre PC)
It's about the size of a deck of regular playing cards and plays local or streamed content up to 1080p very nicely. I put some Velcro dots on the case and stick it on the back of a TV.
I use OSMC, a mini Linux base OS that uses Kodi 16 as media server. It installs in a couple clicks from SD card automatically.
One of the coolest things about the Pi though, is the SD card is essentially the computer hard drive, so popping one out and another in gives you an entirely different machine/application in just seconds literally.
It's still a bit of a hobby project though. Certainly not as polished as some stand alone media servers, but is fun and cheap and very quiet/economical to run. Easily replaced my roaring, power hungry old laptop I used to use for the same purpose.
