Podcasting Basics

Before you get started, it is important to understand some of the terminology and
uses surrounding the emerging field of podcasting.
Podcasting is a term derived from the combination of the words "iPod" and "broad-
casting, " and is defined as the distribution of audio or video files, such as radio
programs or music clips, over the Internet. This is accomplished by using one of two
syndication techniques that allow users to access media on such portable media
devices as the iPod and laptop computers.
RSS (Really Simple Syndication) and Atom are Web content syndication formats
written in XML that provide either podcast content or summaries that link to con-
tent and additional file information.
Podcast is a feed of audio or video files placed on the Internet for public access.
Anyone can subscribe to the feed and download the media files. This allows you to
collect programs from a wide range of sources for listening or viewing media con-
tent, either online or offline with your computer or an appropriate portable device.
Podcatcher refers to a software application that enables the download of podcasts.
It typically runs in the background, managing feeds that you add manually and
downloads each at a specified interval.
