I have seen many people try and shoehorn various problems into MongoDB, when in most cases a relational database would have been better suited.

I have yet to see a real use case for Mongo unless you are building a Facebook clone. Can someone suggest when it is actually useful over a properly tuned relational database?

I guess I kind of reached the irrelevance stage just thinking about the sort of problems it would be suited to rather than actually building anything.
