MySQL (need advice)

[screenwriter]

I haven't used MySQL yet, and was wondering, exactly what does it do? What is it's purpose? I'm a little apprehensive about using it. I don't know if I should. Any advice would be hot.

What do you need to do? MySQL is a database language, and is used for keeping track of data. Whether you should use it or not depends entirely on what you need to get done...
