Evo Terra
From independently funded start-ups to multi-million dollar ebusiness projects, Evo Terra has been leading internet and ecommerce strategic development since 1999. His specialty is in discovering emergent technologies and adapting them to meet a variety of wants and needs.
Prior to Podiobooks.com, he consulted with industry-leading search platforms as they developed their local search properties, directed ebusiness for a $2BB retail organization, and managed over $10MM of online media funds on behalf of various best-of-class advertising clients.
Evo also has a penchant for good literature, co-hosting Dragon Page Cover to Cover, one of the first podcasts ever and is focused on authors of speculative fiction. Additionally, he is recognized as a pioneer in the podcasting world, and co-authored Podcasting for Dummies (TM) along with Tee Morris.
Tee Morris
Tee Morris entered podcasting with an idea, and that idea -- the podcast of MOREVI: The Chronicles of Rafe and Askana -- led to the founding of Podiobooks.com. He also collaborated with Evo Terra on Podcasting for Dummies, the user-friendly, how-to guide to podcasting from Wiley Press. Tee's other writing credits include Dragon Moon Press' The Complete Guide to Writing Fantasy (Finalist for ForeWord Magazine's 2003 Book of the Year), Billibub Baddings and The Case of The Singing Sword (Honorable Mention for ForeWord Magazine's 2004 Book of the Year), The Fantasy Writer's Companion (Finalist for ForeWord Magazine's 2004 Book of the Year), Legacy of MOREVI: Book One of the Arathellean Wars, and the article "Dear John" appearing in BenBella Books's retrospective Farscape Forever: Sex, Drugs, and Killer Muppets. Tee brings to Podiobooks.com his on-stage and behind-the-scenes experiences from theatre, radio, and television as an actor, and continues to explore the possibilities of podcasting.

Chris Miller
Chris has been a lot of things: son, brother, husband, father, medievalist and co-founder of the Dagorhir Kingdom of Avalon, author, reporter, a major Doctor Who fan, former Science Fiction editor for Bookstacks Unlimited (the first bookstore on the web, doing trade on TELNET in 1991), co-author of Diomin, coffee shop manager, and now a founder and Lead Developer of Podiobooks.com. Ain't life grand?
From a technical standpoint, Chris prides himself on being something of a jack-of-all-trades, and has made it a point to learn Microsoft, Sun, and Open Source methods of web/desktop application development. Since 1994, he has designed and/or developed all manner of applications, from E-commerce web storefronts to enterprise-wide billing and invoicing systems. Somehow, he's also lived to tell about it.
He has his own podcast/blog which he calls Unquiet Desperation. Please, feel free drop by and stay awhile.

Rick has been involved in computer technologies for more than 9 years. He was the IT specialist for 3 companies before moving into web programming, and has been programming PHP for over 5 years; his recent adventures have lead him into working with ASP.NET.

Rick is the host of the original indie Christian music podcast, ICM-Raw (which is currently on vacation due to his new job). He is also a multi-instrumentalist playing keyboard, guitar, bass, and drums, and he uses his talents as a music director at a local church.
