So what do you think is a good reason to use Regex? Is it a superior way to match information?
It can be faster, Generally if you are doing a few comparisons it may be.
What makes me use regex so much these days?
Most programming languages allow the use of regular expressions... allthough some require some slight differences.
Alot of the stuff I write in mIRC, I repeat in PHP.
EG. A script that downloads the local weather.
Thats all IMHO though, Hope this answers your question OP.
