Get data from mysql and merge instead of joins

I have just been reading about nosql following your post as I thought, why would anyone not want a relational database? Having read it, I can really see why it is a powerful tool. I can only think of one site I built that had enough data to really need this, but that site would have been so much better with a nosql database.

So thank you, I was really fascinated to read about it. And now that I finally get it, really hope I get a good reason to use one soon.

Best wishes,

Paul.
