I'm new to Mongo DB and Mongoid (and still kinda new to Ruby on Rails). Since Ryan Bates dosen't happen to have a Mongoid Railscast, I need pointers to other good tutorials/screencasts. Thanks!
MongoDB is a Document Database, which stores all schema and records in documents using a JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) like syntax. If you are familiar with JavaScript, JSON, and Web Development, MongoDB will not be very difficult to understand, and these courses will definitely help you to get a good start.
How Long Does it Take to Learn MongoDB? Given that MongoDB is a powerful and detailed database management solution, you will probably need about three weeks to get a good start in it.
There is now a Railscast for Mongoid: http://railscasts.com/episodes/238-mongoid
I find it best to read over the documentation, scan the google group, then just start looking at code.
Here are a couple apps that use mongoid:
Good luck.
