mongodb shell games: here be dragons .. and javascript!
DESCRIPTION
Lightning talk on using and extending MongoDB's "mongo" interactive JavaScript shell. First presented at MongoDB Melbourne 2012: http://www.mongodb.com/events/mongodb-melbourne. This includes some basic tips & tricks through to adding plugins and other goodies.
