Sort of.  No search makes it's use limited.  And the fact that you don't have accounts is troubling for anything other than open source projects.

Yes I think that may be on purpose, by keeping it open the onus is on the developers to make sure they don't host any controversial code, if it was closed then only the site could check.

It seems like a useful replacement for pastebin and the like... nothing more than that, but that by itself is nice enough.

One nice feature is that it lets you go back and see how your source code has grown over time, in almost a slow-motion photography sense.  Could be useful for a mentor-student type of collaboration.
