Week 8: Podcasting

Podcasting is online audio content that could be compared to something such as radio on demand. The differenct is that podcating gives far more options in terms of content and programming than the radio does. Another asset of podcasting is that listeners can determine the time and the place of it deciding what they want to receive and when they want to listen to it, making it very conveniant. It allows listeners to listen at their leiusre.

Podcasting is definitly a tool i can see myself using in the future in the sporting world. The sporting world is one that is very busy and ongoing so a program that is so conveniant would be extremely valuable. One thing it could be used for is informational content that needs to be given out. The most important thing i believe it could be used for in my field is training via instructional material. People may be called upon constantly to do different sorts of jobs so having a podcast available with the necessary training for each job would be very valuable.



This video is a basic instructional walkthrough on how to create a podcast. This would be a great video for beginners that are unsure how to get started. It shows how to create and edit a podcast, and also how to distribute it.
