Quick Introduction to Podcasting – Everything you need to know to get started
From time to time an invention is that makes a great impact on their daily lives but not really an invention at all, but rather the convergence of existing technologies, processes and ideas. Podcasting could be the perfect example of the idea – and is changing the relationship of people with their radios, music collections, books, education, computers and more.
Podcasting is generally regarded as a spin-off of another boom of communications: Blogs (or Weblogs staff). Blogs have sprung up left and right, provided that non-programmers and developers a clean, elegant interface, which left many in the technology side wondering why I had not thought of it before. Every day is now able to chronicle their lives, hopes, dreams and fears, and post them online to anyone who wanted to read. Oddly enough, many people cared to read – and still do.
Podcasting combines instant publishing information from blogs with audio files that can be played on a computer or MP3 player. When you make your podcast available in the Internet age, you are exposing their thoughts to anyone with a personal computer and an Internet connection. To put this in perspective, the global online population toped 1200000000 users in 2006 and portable media players (largely Diven by the popularity of iPod and iPhone) are increasing in popularity.
Podcasts popular as the 'Ricky Gervais Show' which began in late 2005, have become enormously popular and influential worldwide. It entered the Guinness Book of Records in 2007 as the most downloaded podcast has gained an average of more than 261,000 downloads per episode during its first month.
