Xeni Jardin of Boing-Boing was the first to bequeath me with the name several years ago. I've been trying to live up to the name by keeping in the loop on everything that is going on in the digital arena. Not an easy task, when basically it's not the technology that excites me, but the sharing of stories by the people to the people. I am just one of many that sees the digital arena as the great conduit that can make this happen. The more people connect both internally and externally the better off we all are and our World is. My friend and poet Bill Nevins wrote an article on me for a Southwest magazine called FIVE. He entitled it, "The DigiVangelist". I thought I would post it on my first Monday DigiVangelist blog as a sort of unveiling. The main thing about the article that I'd like to stress is that I truly do find the stories of "everyday" people more vibrant and fresh than the cookie cutter stories lately being squeezed out of corporate Hollywood, corporate film schools and corporate film festivals. It is indeed time for some new blood.
