Ever tried a podcast?

No longer just a geeky way of listening to 'new marketing gurus', podcasting is easily accessible to the masses, is fun, and allows you to listen/view what you want, when you want to.

What is a podcast? A podcast is a series of audio or video files that are distributed over the Internet through Web feeds, to portable media players (like ipods) and personal computers.

Unlike Broadcasts, that send out a radio or tv programme at a pre-determined time, podcast can be downloaded and listened to or viewed at any time. All you need is a computer and Internet access and you can choose and download, mainly free, programmes to listen to at your leisure.

If you have a portable media player, you can listen to these podcasts wherever you are: at home, in the car, on the beach. Anywhere.

We'll be looking at podcasts and podcasting in more detail. When you've tried them and got the benefits, you'll be hooked.
