I will use it for things that work better (for me) on one line. For
example, I might use it to optionally stick an "s" on the end of a result
description

<? echo "There were $number item" . ( count($result) != 1 ? "s" : "" ) . "
found";?>

I actually use the ternary operator all the time. This is just one
example.

later...
