They had the option of creating some serious variety of algorithms, but mostly wasted it by using 4 almost interchangeable Bitcoin-like hash functions, plus the altcoin default, scrypt. I look forward to more variety in the future, perhaps with some CPU-friendly choice as well...

Quite forgot to answer you second question. Why? I like the coins that are not so high, and getting sometimes (too) little publicity. Help them by talking about them en buy some. Sometimes it's just a feeling! Facebook Spartan 300 Giveaway - simply like us Cryptosandwich.com - Spartan Giveaway Bitbillions- Spartan 300 Giveaway - Support Thunderclap

Protoshares(Bitshares-PTS), because it has a real company behind it with paid programers and what looks like a bright future for all of their up coming DACS.

I'm thinking that GPL coin is rather interesting even though I haven't been able to read up on it as much as I'd like.

I think it is more important to store value in the blockchain ledger perceived most legitimate by the cryptocurrency community, than to worry about "interesting features" [unless you are a dev pushing innovation forward].
It seems to me that a "coin" is actually two things: (1) a payment network, and (2) a shared ledger of stored value. If the technology running Payment Network A is suddenly deemed "the best", then the community using Ledger B can just adopt a similar network without "panic trading" out of Ledger B.

The devs are willing to change one of the algos with a cpu friendly algo,Even though you can use the groestl algo if you want to cpu mine.

For me: Einsteinium / EMC2: Because I like to think about how fast it could advance human technological progress if it grows, especially if it somehow became larger than where BTC is now. (not saying that will happen, ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) ) Imagine a crypto-currency funding the tech to get us to Mars. Bytecoin / BCN: Because it's such a ridiculous mystery. New protocol, anonymous, a whole blockchain running secretly on the deepweb for 2 years. What? If it's truly anonymous, IMO this coin would've been huge if anyone knew about it. Defines interesting.
