That totally depends on what you want to do with Redis/MongoDB. Do you intend to use it as your primary data store? AFAIK One of MongoDB's goals is to be useful for a lot of things you'd normally use a relational database for. Redis on the other hand has a lot of nice things to handle more specialized cases of data.

this would have been very useful earlier today

I have been using Sparrow since christmas and I really like it. On a large screen, Mail.app just does not look right. Loving the gmail keyboard shortcuts. Seems like every app I like must be keyboard friendly now: From Things to The Hit List, from Mail.app to Sparrow, from Textmate to vim. I blame vim.

Keyboard navigation is too often overlooked in desktop apps. It should be in the very first release. A high percentage of early adopter-types are power users who want that kind of functionality. I can't tell you how many OS X Twitter clients I installed, only to promptly uninstall them (and never try them again) because I couldn't navigate them with the keyboard. The well thought out keyboard navigation was what sold me on Sparrow the moment I installed it.

I would like to see that!

listening and tweaking my notes for the redis workshop which is due friday :)

Just have the Gemfile.lock changes in a separate commit. Regreted it many times I didn't.
