Summary |
This volume provides information about how to master the art and science behind podcasting, providing everything readers need to know to help generate high-volume, high-quality podcasts. A podcast (or non-streamed webcast) is a series of digital media files (either audio or video) that are released episodically and often downloaded through web syndication. The word replaced webcast in common use with the success of the iPod and its role in the rising popularity and innovation of web feeds. |
