Overview

Podcasting

DEFINITION: Podcasting is a way of publishing sound files
to the Internet, allowing users to subscribe
to a feed and receive new audio files automatically.

PLUS: Unlike radio or streaming media, podcasts are
time-shifted, meaning that listeners have control
over when they hear the recording.

MINUS: Podcasts cannot have live participation or
reach large audiences as quickly as radio can.
