Info and instructions on podcasting
Podcast
— what's that?
A podcast is a radio show in
the form of an mp3 file that can be downloaded
to your computer using free “podcatching” software. So you never
miss an episode, podcatching software can be set up to automatically
download the latest programs. Once delivered to your computer,
podcasts can be listened to using freely available audio player software.
No additional hardware or software is needed
to listen to podcasts on your computer.
For on-the-go listening, podcasts can be transferred
from your computer to a portable digital audio player,
such as an iPod.
In short, podcasting is radio on
demand, when and where you want it.
