Podcasting

Podcasting is similar in nature to [|RSS], which allows subscribers to have access to a set of feeds to view [|syndicated] [|Web site] content. With podcasting you have a set of subscriptions that are checked regularly for updates and instead of reading the feeds on your __[|computer]__ screen, you listen to the new content on on your [|iPod] (or like [|device]). The format used for podcasting is RSS 2.0 with enclosures. The podcasting enclosures refer to all binary (non-text) downloads. You can read the text description of the enclosure before downloading the item to view. A podcast, simply put, is no different than a webcast, a show that is broadcast over the web and is broken up into parts or episodes. Most podcasts are similar to news radio programs and deliver information on a regular basis, while some podcasts are comedy shows, special music broadcasts or even gospel. Podcasts are most popular on Apple's [|iPod] and [|iPhone] devices, hence the name podcast, but a podcast can be enjoyed from a number of different sources and can even be listened to directly on a computer. Podcasting lets anybody with a microphone, a computer and an Internet connection publish audio shows that can be listened to by people anywhere in the world. Because the barriers to entry are very low, podcasting is rapidly becoming a popular way for people share audio shows. Podcasts are free and can be automatically downloaded to portable media players, so you can listen to them whenever it's convenient.
