This and a few other poor explanations make me wince reading this. So I don't particularly recommend this article, although I've seen worse. :)
TFA does at least link the original interview w/ Ryan King of Twitter (http://nosql.mypopescu.com/post/407159447/cassandra-twitter-...) which is much better for people at HN level.
My own article at http://www.rackspacecloud.com/blog/2010/02/25/should-you-swi..., although high level, also has some useful links for those who want to drill down for more details.
