15. “Everycasting” and our future direction

16. Meet Joe, and Joe’s blog Jose is all about running. He’s posted 500 entries on his WordPress blog in just 2 years, including 60,000 photos. He wants his site to look better, but knows nothing about design and has little time.

17. Everycasting to the Rescue! Joe goes to Everycasting and puts in his blog’s RSS feed. He chooses some design styles he likes, then customizes them by uploading his logo.

18. Meet Joe’s new Web site Now Joe’s site looks just as professional as The New York Times. It can work as its own standalone site, or take over the design of his existing site through inclusion of a simple Web widget. But it’s more than just a Web site …

19. It’s a printable E-Edition, too The same design elements flow into a Printcast which is automatically promoted from the new site (what we do now). We’ve learned that publishers respond well to the idea of getting an electronic print edition promoted from their Web sites, vs. the idea of turning your blog into a magazine. The Web is still the most important platform, and people want a print option for certain uses.

20. Meet Joe’s New Magazine The same stories and design elements automatically flow into his Printcast.

21. Meet Joe’s iPhone Site We can sniff out which device you’re using to visit Joe’s site and optimize the interface for that device. Joe doesn’t have to do anything to make this happen other than check a box.

22. Meet Joe’s eBook We can output to standard eBook formats. That includes Apple’s future iPad, thanks to their adoption of the open ePub format.

23. Joe is Now a Media Mogul Mobile Web eReaders Print

24. Who else is like Joe? Millions of bloggers, of course. But also … Large organizations with content and Web departments that start every conversation with “no, we can’t do that.” Corporate communications departments. Media companies of all sizes that need to do more, but with less. Governments at all levels (city, county, state, federal, and departments within them). In short, everyone!

25. Looking Ahead We’re working under a grant from the Knight News Challenge which ends in June. Everything will then be open-sourced. Plans are to spin off as a new company and provide customized, private-label “Everycasting” services for publishers. And yes, we’re looking for investors, too!
