Podcasting is simply distributing
audio content using RSS. The process is suprisingly
simple, and by making audio content available
using RSS, podcasters give listeners more
control over what they listen to and when.
Also, many podcasts are available for syndication,
which increases a broadcasters exposure.
Generally podcasting is helpful for: 1. Music - (demo's) 2. Training (instructional materials) 3. Self Guided Walking Tours 4. Talk Shows (discussions, commentaries)

an MP3 or audio file in the enclosure tag.
