What is Podcasting?
The word podcasting is an amalgam of the word broadcasting and the name of the popular MP3 player from Apple Computer called the iPod. It implies that an iPod is required to podcast, however, podcasts can be used with a variety of digital audio formats and play on almost any MP3 player or portable digital audio device - as well as any brand of desktop computer or laptop. Recently, more and more, media players are supporting podcasting within the media players menus.

To define it: Podcasting is the process of capturing an audio event, song, speech, or mix of sounds and then posting that digital sound object to a Web site or blog in a data structure called an RSS 2.0 envelope ( or feed). RSS is an acronym for Real Simple Syndication and has become an evolutionary specification for the use of XML tags to define objects on a website that can be subscribed to through an application called an RSS news reader. Using specialized news readers like iPodder or iPodderX, users can subscribe to a Web page containing RSS 2.0 tagged audio files on designated web pages and automatically download these files directly into a media player program. When a user synchronizes their portable audio device with their personal computer the podcasts are automatically transferred to that device to be listened to at the time and location most convenient for the user.

Many have compared podcasting to Tivo® or a DVR (digital video recorder) because of its time-shifting ability. In some aspects it is similar, but it is also different in that the recorded content is delivered in its final format to a portable device that is independent of the recording device.
