NOTE: While MySpace may be a cool SNS for many, it's not where I spend a lot of my time. Feel free to contact me, friend me, message me... or any other thing that the powers that be here come up with. But understand that it is NOT the fastest or bestest way to contact me. It may be weeks or months before I get to your message. Just sayin...
Evo is the poster child for Type A personalities the world over. Washed-up musician, tree-hugging herbalist, heretical-but-ordained minister, talk-radio & podcaster personality, advertising executive and technology innovator; all wrapped up in one single-serving package. In the podcasting world, Evo tends to infect others with the podcasting bug, from budding show hosts to the people behind the scenes finding new uses for podcast technologies.
His first podcast was available on October 14, 2004, though many listeners to his program had been downloading .mp3 files directly from his website since 2002. In November 2005, Podcasting for Dummies was released to the masses, penned by Evo and Tee Morris.
In early 2006, Evo and his partner Michael R. Mennenga formed FarPoint Media, an "incubator" of sorts to develop and distribute original media productions. FarPoint Media acts as the parent company to not only Evo's three podcasts (including the award-winning Slice of Scifi which is carried on XM Satellite radio), but a variety of other podcats. Evo left Farpoint in June of 2007.
Evo's latest and perhaps most ambitious project is Podiobooks.com, an online "library" of freely available books released in serialized podcast form. Podiobooks.com is a fresh look at the technolgy behind podcasting, showcasing how the underlying principles can be modified to meet specific needs of emerging marketplaces.
