It’s hard to imagine what it felt like for Adam Curry when Podcasting took off like wild fire. Generating an idea from the ether and seeing others adopt it must be one of the few pleasures that we rarely get the opportunity to experience.

This morning, I had a faint glimpse into just what that could feel like and, well, it’s cool as all heck and still a mystery to me. I came across a link to Beercasting.com from a fellow in Montreal. My first instinct told me that it was no different than the many other international mentions of Beercasting - interest in the concept.

I couldn’t have been more wrong. What I did find, instead, was the first independent Beercast done by someone. The importance to me is that someone called it a Beercast and went out and did it. Here’s the translated quote:

Our first beercast ! Pierre - Nicolas and me recorded our first beercast this evening at the time of the meeting of Island Without Wire . If you are not familiar with the principle , it is a very simple … podcast recorded in first of beer , not badly of beer the whole without any assembly ! Enjoy calisse ! (this was written right away after the beercast , No censorship !)

Do you dare the downloader?

N.B: One tries to beat record of the post with the most hyperlinks (one is a little drunk ok!

I’ll be releasing the Topic Index soon on the site for anyone to participate. Soon after that anyone will have the ability to upload their own Beercasts for publishing.

So, can anyone tell me what he said :)
