The Podcasts

What is podcasting?
Podcasting, as described by Cisco, is the online publishing of files in a way that allows for the subscription-like syndication and distribution of audio content as it becomes available. Podcasting can be thought of as an audio magazine subscription, in that a subscriber receives audio programs without having to manually go out and get them, and can listen to them at their discretion.
