How to demonstrate nosql with beer ... quite funnny, I especially like the performance demonstration!

It's time to expand our lexicon of metaphors used to explain computing. Desktops and filing cabinets are becoming dated, but beer never gets obsolete.
I vote for a part 2 to show a real-time beer supercluster with more Dale Kim appearances.
I especially like the performance and real time query demonstration!
I especially liked the Trash Can Moment .. a literal ROTFL
... a novel way to describe NoSQL at parties ;)
Totally cool way to understand the technology!
Way to go! Next up MVCC using do-nuts
Love the trash can!
I like it! :-)
