[ZODB-Dev] reasons to use ZODB

[Duncan McGreggor]

Hey folks,

I'm putting together a brief series of HowTos (with the help of Casey) 
that aims to introduce people to ZODB earlier on than they might 
normally get into it. At a basic level, ZODB is a fantastic tool and 
easy to work with. The trick is wrapping people's heads around the 
concept of an OODB.

Anyway, for the introduction, I would like to have a section "Why 
Should I Use ZODB?" What would people think about responding to this 
thread with their top-favorite things about ZODB? Everything from 
features to how it makes your life easier... these could then be edited 
and compiled for the reading pleasure of many ;-)

If you'd like to take a look at it, it's about half-way done (still 
have to do the 'tools' section, backups, and ZEO):

(note: there are some funky relative links I need to fix up)

Thanks,

Duncan
