WHAT IS PODCASTING?

~ Kevin Bachelder

Podcasting is often referred to as online radio. It’s a way that allows anyone to share their thoughts, opinions and expertise with everyone else. It allows anyone to be a content creator regardless of their background. All you need to create your own podcast is a passion for a specific topic, a computer and a microphone..

Podcasts can be audio or video. If you’re looking to find other people who share a similar passion (knitting, photography, travel, SciFi movies, etc.) there’s probably already several podcasts out there on that topic.

Most podcasts are normally free to listen to and very easy to enjoy.

This video does an excellent job of describing podcasts:
