I might be wrong but I thought § meant section or subsection.

Yup. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/§

What countries'/languages' keyboards have this key? I've never seen it here in America. I need to hit option-6 to get the symbol.

On Ausrian keyboards its printed above the 3, so shift - 3 is §.
Option - 6 is ] so then option - 5 is [.

In the UK, § is to the left of number 1, with ± above it. Option-6 also works.

Also, someone asked about the ⇞⇟ arrow keys with double lines on them. They do page-up and page-down for me, and I use them quite a lot so hands off !!
