I am using MongoHQ to get up and running.

The recommended setup for deploying MongoDB on EC2 is a little too much overhead right now and I am not a sysadmin. If everything is going well and I start to notice performance issues on MongoHQ, I will move off to managing MongoDB myself.

Not having to learn it all is the best part of using MongoHQ - you can focus on using the platform instead of learning how to administrate it which on top of the million other things we all have to do is a PITA, especially if your startup goes down with every mistake you make.
