The biggest strength of the IPython Notebook interface is in communicating computational thinking.
With computational thinking I mean any subject matter where the way of arriving at the results is at least as important as the results themselves.
With IPython Notebook, you can perform live demos (e.g. live_reveal extension), communicate with your future self or collaborators and even peer reviewers.
