What is Podcasting?
Podcasting is delivering audio content to iPods and other
portable media players on demand, so that it can be listened to
at the user's convenience. The main benefit of podcasting is
that listeners can sync content to their media player and take
it with them to listen whenever they want to. Because podcasts
are typically saved in MP3 format, they can also be listened to
on nearly any computer.
Lastly, it's
important to note that you do not need an iPod or any other
portable media player to enjoy podcasts. The name podcasting can
be confusing in that regard. The only requirement is a computer
with an Internet connection and a set of speakers or headphones. |
