Podcasting basics
The following section gives you a quick insight into the terminology being used.
Podcasting is a term derived from combining the two words “iPod”
and“broadcasting” and is dened as the distribution of audio or video les,
such as radio programs or music clips, over the Internet. This is accomplished
by using one of two syndication techniques which allow users to listen and,
oflate,even view digital media on such portable media devices as iPod players
andlaptops.
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Atom are Web content syndication
formats written in XML which provide either podcast content or summaries that
link to content and additional le information.
Podcast is a feed of audio or video les placed on the Internet for public access.
Anyone can subscribe to the feed and download the media les. This allows
you to collect programs from a wide range of sources for listening or viewing
media content, either online or oine with your computer or an appropriate
portabledevice.
Podcatcher refers to a software application that enables the download of
podcasts. Usually, it launches when the computer is started and then runs in the
background, managing feeds that you add manually and downloading each at a
speciedinterval.
