Look, I know I'm being negative on MongoDB. But I really wanted it to be awesome, but it's inherent limitations are just so start that I feel that most people who use it are doing so because they are misinformed or misled. If you have found success with it, that's great. I just have very strong reservations about the entire data model for most people.

Ease up there buddy! I wasn't being condescending. I just think that for most people a relational model is probably what they are looking for. I don't think the article I posted is "pathetic", as that's a bit condescending... Just showing one datapoint that shows where people think they need a hierarchical data model, in fact they need an relational model.
