What+is+Podcasting?



===Is it some type of fishing with a pod of dolphins or whales? Is it a term used in the entertainment business that refers to casting a large group of potential cast members at once? ===  The simple answer to that question is that Podcasting is a MP3 file, recorded in the same fashion as radio or television programme. Podcasting also describes the process of using audio files to deliver syndicated website content to a digital audience. It can then be downloaded from the Internet onto a computer and added onto a portable MP3 player. Basically, in Podcasting, you create audio files that are available on your website, which people can then download. So Podcasting is essentially another medium for delivering syndicated web content much like how blogs operates.It has actually been referred to as “blogging with sound”.


 * IMPORTANT NOTE **: Podcasting is not limited to iPods and iTunes, but can be used with a wide range of other portable MP3 players as well as traditional computers.

It is potentially the new radio, in some instances television, of the current technological era as it is generally used for entertainment and a means of exchanging information between various parties. It is now becoming a trend with a number of radio stations and television programmes who often upload their shows for Podcasting to allow their audience to listen or watch shows at their own convenience.
