Podcasting is making a recording for use on an iPod or a computer using syndication feeds. A podcast is an existing recording that was made for playback on an Ipod or a computer. Podcasting is relatively new concept in the world.
Podcasts have evolved since their conception in 2004. They are not only for recordings made by musicians or authors. Podcasting is used regularly by businesses: promoting products and ideas, doctors; sharing their knowledge with their colleagues, and schools; for a variety of disciplines. So the uses of the podcast are vast and almost limitless.
Adam Curry came up with the program used for creating a podcast, in October of 2004; while he was recovering from a motorcycle accident. He, with the help, of his friend, Dave Winer developed it using Apple Script. (Pg#?)
Even though Adam and Dave created podcasting they didn’t coin the phrase podcast. The honor of naming the program belongs to Ben Hammersly. He coined the phrase by combining two words, Ipod and broadcast.(Wiki Pg#?)
According toHands on Guide to Video Blogging and Podcasting/Emerging Tools for Business Communication Technology has advanced podcasting includes video sharing as well. At first Podcasting was strictly for sharing audio files.(1)
