Podcasting

What is Podcasting ?

A podcast is a digital media file, or a related collection of such files, which is distributed over the Net using syndication feeds for playback on a Media player, stereo, ipod etc. The term, like the word "radio", can refer either to the content itself or to the method by which it is syndicated; the latter is also termed ''podcasting''.
