For me its as simple as: if I want a web app for a small group of users I will stick to RDBMS but if I dream of ever getting to 10 million daily average users you might want to look at mongodb or couchdb.

True, NoSQL dbs may be good to play with and learn, but in my humble opinion most projects that we handle around here don't warrant their use. If I'm not wrong, Cassandra, which FB use, only powers their Inbox search feature. So it's not the only DB they use. They still use MySql.

I think before rushing the newest fad it would be wise to do intense research into what problems NoSQL database solve and whether it is worth the investment. The problems Amazon and Facebook and Twitter have are unlikely to be the same as the typical add-edit record applications.

This video http://www.xtranormal.com/watch/6995033/ has some excellent discussion
