What Is Podcasting?
A podcast is an easy way to automatically download audio files to your
MP3 player through your computer. Use a free application to subscribe to
the appropriate RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed. The application
checks the site regularly and starts a download whenever it finds
something new.
How Do I Get Started?
Here's what you'll need: a computer, an Internet connection, a portable
MP3 player or MP3-playback application on your computer, and some free
podcasting software.
- Install the software on your computer (PC or Mac).
- Subscribe to a Podcast Feed by pasting its URL into your Podcast
application.
- The next time you synch your MP3 device, any new audio files added
since your last synch will automatically be downloaded.
What Software Do I Use?
Depending on your preference, you can use iPodder, jPodder (Windows), iPodderX (MacOS X) or another Podcast application of
your choosing.
