It blows my mind a person wouldn't read the manual.

"use foobar" creates a new database called foobar.
Ah, somewhere along the line I got the impression that in Mongo a "database" and a "collection" were the same thing, but that's not true. Glad to know this was just my mistake!
Nope. Collections are analogous to tables, and documents to rows.

#194I agree with posts stating that you should read the docs before using a tool you don't know. But I also think that these two really important points should be mentioned in the Getting Started guide, in bold: - The 32bit 2GB limitation (seriously when I started with MongoDB I wasn't expecting this!) - The fire-and-forget policy These are really not points to be discovered in chapter whatever of the docs.
