MongoDB for Java Developers Week 2

Finished the week 2 of this online course a couple of days ago. I have to say I have been pleasantly surprised by the course. My experience of technical courses has not been great. All to often you end up being told what to write and where to put it in the code and that is supposed to make you an expert. I am making a conscious effort not to simply go back to the notes for the homework sections, but just use the API reference along with some trial and error. I definitely feel I know significantly more about MongoDB than a couple of weeks ago, and being able to quickly fire it up on the mac and play around either directly in the shell or via an IDE allows me to keep on learning. Roll on Week 3!
