I usually travel SA, I've spent a lot of nights stuck in airports, ORD, SFO, BOS, and DEN etc. etc..
I just sleep on the chairs usually. Spend the night on the phone, walk around looking at all the shops, I enjoy strolling around the concourses for exercise, or looking out at the airfield. ORD is a cool place to hang out, the tunnel in the United concourse is fun to walk around a couple times.
Edit:
Also traveling from an SA point of view, and having a greater understanding on how airlines work help me feel comfortable at airports over night. Even if I miss one because of cancellation, I don't care. Usually I get stuck from flights being full, which can't be helped since I used to pay nothing to $20.
Its funny, I wrote an essay about the different kinds of travelers once, usually there's the family travelers who don't understand airlines and flip out at the first news of flight cancellation, flight full, delays etc.
Next there are business employees/travelers they're generally pretty good.
Finally the SA travelers, who don't care how/when they get there, just that they do!
I split it up into more, but generally that's how I see it.

Many many times, in many different airports. I usually get comped a room about 75% of the time.
Once got stuck in JFK when going to Paris because my connection was late. Ended up sleeping in the terminal since I was under 18 and they wouldn't get me a room (even though they have done it before).
Another time I spent 2 extra days in San Fransisco because I volunteered for the next day's flight to Osaka, then they cancelled the next day's. Both nights free in the Double Tree.
When I was flying to Hartford, CT from Copenhagen, Denmark for my sister's graduation I almost got stuck in Paris. I ended up getting them to fly me to JFK and my mother made a 6hr round trip drive to pick me up, we made it back to her place at 7am just in time to start getting ready.

Airports should be REALLY big. It is always over crowded. More people should be working to cut the lines.
An airport should be a city size.

Depends.
Cheap asses, or people with benefits.
The latter for me, as my dad is a United employee of ~15 years.
