yes, i think so. tough i am not sure i understand why you would need this
besides mongodb's default primary key _id field (which is quite cool since
the hash also contains the creation date).

yes, that's the problem. with cheap shared hosting you always are pretty
much limited to php+mysql. that's a pity because there are so many other
nice technologies i would like to work with like django, meteor,...
