Storing Data in MySQL as JSON

I thought this was a n00b thing to do, and so i've never done it than i saw that FriendFeed did this and actually made their DB scale better and decreased latency. I'm curious if I should do this, and if so, what's the right way to do it?Basically, whats a good place to learn how to store everything in MySQL as a couchDB sort of DB. Storing everything as JSON seems like it'd be easier and quicker (not to build, less latency).Also, is it easy to edit/delete/etc things stored as JSON on the DB?
