The three things that I've seen that impressed me (and I'm a newb) were: 1. Swing GUI construction. Clojure's psuedo "with" syntax makes it very elegant. 2. Multi-threaded ant simulation. Although, I might try to do something simpler. 3. Numerical calculations. The fact that Clojure uses arbitrary precision and Ratios is very nice. 4. (Bonus) An Incanter demo.
