Not trying to oversimplify here, just not sure what you've tried.

Where are you looking for the installed files?
If you run the command rpm -ivh everybuddy-0.2.0-1.src.rpm
It will put the source in /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/
and the spec file will be in /usr/src/redhat/SPECS/
If that's the case, cd /usr/src/redhat/SPECS and issue
rpm -bb everybuddy.spec
If it is successful, the rpm file will be in /usr/src/redhat/RPMS/

If you don't want to build it from source, you could also grab
everybuddy-0.2.0-1.i386.rpm from http://www.everybuddy.com/

Hope that helps,
-D
