You and your buddy have both been reported for spamming. If, as you say, you are genuine, then you should make a proper, formal, approach to the site administrators to get your surveys published here.

I am confused by -
"This question: Which of these NoSQL technologies do you actively use for production workloads, or are actively experimenting with?
Requires an answer. I have not worked with any NoSQL technology, and neither is "other" an option."
If you aren't using, or experimenting with any then this survey isn't really for you.
However, "other" is an option with a space to type "none" if you wish.

Well, I find NoSql to be a very narrow solution and an overly cited "let's use this cool crap" technology, so it damn well is pertinent that I have not worked on any NoSQL technology. I avoid it like the plague. Maybe you should consider that as part of the survey.
Anyways, I'm done. I'll be very curious what others think of your claim that you're actually from Microsoft.

Fair enough. And yes, I guess that is valuable feedback. I have amended the survey and added another option "None".

To be fair it isn't like that is something new in the tech industry. I remember when CASE tools were going to make programmers obsolete.

Flavor of the week for those that can't understand how a relational database works.
Of course often they can't be bothered to understand even how mongodb works or even what a coherent data model is.
Fits in well with the standard way that agile works (not how it is supposed to work but how it is in fact used) with the implement now and plan later (or not at all) idiom.
Only thing I have found that I think might be useful is that it might be able to handle continuous streaming video better than a normal database. Of course overall in the business world that is a very small segment.

"Really", I replied.
"Yes, I want you to get down and dirty", she stated.
"Anything you desire", I foolishly respond.

Time for a nice drive... Tomorrow I'm heading for Missouri, leaving around midnight, to visit my friend Denise's brother. On the way, though, she insists that we stop in Amarillo to have a steak at the Big Texan; she saw that lady eat three 72 oz steaks in 20 minutes, and I think she wants to try it herself. I'll stick with a small ribeye, I think, and maybe a salad.
Any thoughts about what else might be interesting in the Amarillo area? I've never driven through this part of the country before, so have no idea what might be there other than cattle and coyotes.

Big Texan's menu[^] is making me salivate. It's almost 3:00pm here and all I've had all day is a couple of cookies and 2 cups of coffee. Cravin' red meat... I think it's gonna be a nice Southstreet burger + Five Guy's cajun fries + a large (home made) salad for dinner tonight. And possibly a beer.

We barbequed 16 large ribeyes at the office yesterday, so I have leftovers to gnaw on. The linemen save scrap wire and turn it in for recycling periodically, and we used the proceeds from last week for a major chow-down. Roasted taters covered in onions and cheddar... grilled corn on the cob dripping with melted butter...
Shall I warm you up a slab? Or would you rather have a nice ham sandwich?

Dang. A large pool of saliva has appeared at my keyboard. That ham sandwich ain't got nothin' on steak.

Looks like pretty slim pickings.[^] Wow, what a total lack of culture.

Yeah, I can hardly wait to see the RV museum. 
We considered going to the zoo, but if I want to see a jackass, I'll watch C-SPAN for free.

Yeah, I can't believe they made a museum of an RV park. WTF?

When you're in Mizzou say "Hi" to my sister if you see her - I hear she lives there now.
