Shad,
To be honest I don't think use your platform with Podside to educate the EVE side on how we can build a cross platform community enough. It's a two and half our podcast...20 or 30min per episode would help us a lot.

LOL Sounds like I need to have a forum published r+¬sum+¬. Guess IGÇÖll have to bit.
