The most creative use of a static site generator is a static API. It doesn't require a database and doesn't require PHP. It may use more disk space but ahh well, what's disk space compared to CPU cycles and memory?
I'm really liking the way things are going with static site generators. I do hope they get more popular. I even said to a client who was having troubles with their WordPress being hacked that they need to keep on top of updates. They asked if there's any way around it. My response "Don't use code". They were intrigued by the idea of a static site generator, but alas they likely don't have the skill set required to get started and it wasn't in my companies interest to recommend a competitor product to manage that.
