Hi all,

I'm writing a simple Facebook app and I'm vaguely considering using
Mongo (and Mongoid) for the data storage.

Does anyone have any experience/advice on any apps they've used Mongo
for?

Cheers,

Chris.

I've used MongoMapper with MongoDB. It's considered more ActiveRecord
like than Mongoid.

I'm not sure how that has changed in the Rails 3 world though.

I found MongoMapper and MongoDB fairly productive to use, but I did't
have a use that needed to scale broadly.

Cheers,
Walter
