Allen Whitman

Jon R. Luini has been in the trenches of streaming audio since the beginning. Involved in the first-ever live music concert broadcast (way back in 1994), Jon saw the Internet bubble inflate and explode (dodging numerous big money buyouts and attacks by hungry lawyers) as a founder of IUMA and MediaCast (the first Internet broadcast production company) and co-creator of Addicted To Noise (the first online music magazine). Jon runs an Internet and music consulting and technology company, Chime Interactive, plays in a band, and resides with his wife and expanding cat near Santa Cruz, California.

Allen E. Whitman likes anything that has a practical use. A lifetime musician and sometime journalist, Allen currently lives in Northern California's East Bay (pig-Latin for "Beast") region.

Jon and Allen have been providing Internet audio enlightenment as the FezGuys since 1996. Their writings have been featured in Tape Op, EQ Magazine, Gig Magazine, Webmonkey, Pro Sound News, Replication News, and Revolution. The FezGuys have been moderators, panelists, and interviewers at various industry events, including Streaming Media West, Webnoize Conference, Webzine, Macworld Expo, South By Southwest (SxSW) Interactive, North By North-west (NxNW), NAB (National Association of Broadcasters), and the SF Expo for the Musician.
