Until you reach Cataclysm's 80+ zones nothing is likely to live long enough to bother casting Living Bomb, and even then it might not be worth it
DoTs are rarely that useful except if you are grinding a whole load of enemies at once

You don't get living bomb until level 69 at the earliest; it will probably be most useful in 5-man dungeons, but if you have enough HP to take some punishment, it's definitely worth it to cast it solo. That daily quest up by the argent tournament where you had to kill cultists, i was just run around spamming living bomb and blast wave, and those cultists would blow themselves to pieces.

That is still a risky strategy versus just spamming arcane blast or using snares and freezes from the frost tree, but it is a viable strat.
