where to from here

What is Podcasting?
Podcasting is a newly created term with conflicting origins. “Podcasts are recordings distributed across the Internet as downloadable MP3 files” (Broida, 2005). These multimedia files are accessible by mobile players or personal computers through the use of syndication feeds. Ben Hammersley is credited with the first publication of the term podcasting (Shaughnessy, 2005). The Education Podcast Network (What is a, 2006) described a podcast as a merger between blogging and radio. Jobbings (2005) explained that podcasting is essentially an Internet based radio show. Podcasting involves the process of creating and publishing a digital radio broadcast on the Internet (Jobbings, 2006).

I cant wait until next year when I go back to my school and introduce Podcasting. I am collecting information on podcasting. Very much into podcasting / NET Learning. Most interesting paper I took. I am amazed how much I have learnt about Net Learning..
