I'd love to see tutorials that really spoon feed sharding and scaling it in various scenarios. The docs have a simple tutorial but it's brief and relies too heavily on "you'll understand it if you just do it". I want to use MongoDB but I don't want to wake up 3 months later and discover what I did was screw it up.
I'd also love to see articles that talk about what can go wrong and how to recover from it, and maintenance.
Generally just stuff that would prepare me and others to use MongoDB coming from no experience with nosql stuff.
hey benologist, hehe yes I agree it needs more resources. Thats why i'm hoping people will post up resources. I only made the site live 12 hours ago ;)
The mongodb commmunity is quite small right now I think, i'm sure it'll grow, and the amount of resources out there will grow with it. =)
I don't mean to sound like a jerk, but if you want your site to be successful, you'll do the legwork of seeding it with the many existing blog posts about MongoDB. There are plenty of resources out there and blaming the "quite small" MongoDB community for the lack of links on your site is not really accurate.
Hi Pius, no you're not a jerk at all and that is a very valid point that you make. I havn't had the time to do that in the last 12 hours since I launched it.

Feedback is what I want right now. =)
