I've used it for shortened email addresses - which is very effective for long domain names, to have a second domain which is abbreviated for ease of use.

I thought there was some Search Engine Optimization benefit to having parked domains...guess I will have to research that a bit.

Thanks for the responses!
I think parks are for noobs perhaps and 301 redirects are for the L337.

I think rather than parking the domains, you should set them up as an addon domain and then use a 301 permanent redirect in .htaccess that way the domains all go to one site and there is no duplicate content penalty.
