tutorials on using the file system for storing data?
elad: I started using the filesystem for storage a while back, and then realized that I'm re-implementing a lot of DBMS functionality in my own buggy code. I switched over to using a database.I'm just saying that you should consider all of your requirements first, figure out how much code you're going to need that just manages your data, and then decide whether a database is really such a bad idea.
