Podcasting your own podcast.
The hippest new way to broadcast information on the internet,
podcasting, crept into internet vocabulary in 2004. And the
editors of the New Oxford American Dictionary have selected
"podcast" as the word of the year for 2005.
Why is podcasting cool and so compelling? Unlike traditional
broadcasting, podcasting allows you to select what you want to
download to your iPod or other portable audio device and listen
to later.
A podcast is the wide and growing world of a blog. And of course
that means it's just as cheap: free and easy for all. The major
difference is that a podcast involves audio content feeds of
"live happenings" while a blog records what happened in the
past. So podcast yourself and you'll catch up with the growth of
technology.
Especially, no one controls over what you have podcast. No
rules, no regulations. Adam Curry, known as an MTV VJ to some
but to most as one of the fathers of podcasting, said, "You can
hear all these shows that are completely free and open with no
FCC restrictions and they don't have to sound the way radio
traditionally has." He added, "Anyone who wants to sell anything
or communicate through audio can use this technology." And since
anyone can be a podcaster, the cost of publishing free speech
plunges.
Podcasting is a cross between a radio show and a blog. The great
thing is anyone can produce a podcast with little budget and
basic knowledge of IT. Once you have produced your own podcast,
and as long as you keep on podcasting, you can invite people to
subscribe to receive updates regularly instead of having to
revisit your site. This is done in a very similar way to using
an RSS reader to syndicate blog.
Now, if you want to be a celebrity overnight, all you need is a
little piece of software, sort of Music Morpher Gold, a
microphone and a great concept and you're an instant podcaster.
Not only will your voice be podcast, the many formats of
podcasting will also let you publish your video or pictures.
That's the reason why you can use DVD Player-Morpher Gold to
produce those stuffs.
Have a future in the entertainment industry. Host your own talk
show, music radio, personal radio show, etc. Or just distribute
your audio and video via the internet. It's all about
convenience! Let everyone see your music as "a proper podcast"
in place of "a common crap".
