I'm now a user of both MongoDB and SQL-based ORMs, and I find that using a No-SQL type syntax makes it much easier to work with data programatically, ie, turn a UI query into a db query.
But as a human, say when I'm using the Mongo client, I miss using the much readable SQL. Typing JSON queries can be quite painful. And driving it thru a map-reduce javascript function just to summarize a column is horrendous.
