Cellphones are quickly becoming an integral part of our lives. They increase the convenience factor, help us stay organized, and support us in touch with the folk that we love. They can besides help us support informed!
As cellular telephone technologies increase, cell phone manufacturers are finding new route to pack great programs into their cellphones. One such program that is being built into cellphones now, and wish increase in the future, is the RSS feed capability.
Having this capability wish mean that your cellular telephone can act like an MP3 player, and possibly you already have a cell phone that has MP3 player capabilities. But in a cellular telephone with RSS feed capabilities take the MP3 player format one step further.
The word “podcasting” was coined in 2004. It is a technology that no one detected
simply about until recently but is gaining quality
at an exponential rate. A podcast is like a radio program that broadcasters create in an MP3 format and attach it to an RSS feed on their web site. Computers and cellphones with RSS feed capabilities can grab the MP3 file and transfer
it automatically. This means that every time the podcaster does a new show, your computer or your cell phone can mechanically
pick it up.
(A quick note on terminology: podcasts and punchcasts are virtually the same thing except that podcasts are typically the "radio show" that goes to your computer, piece punch casts are considered the ones that end up on your cell phone, even as if they are the same show in the same MP3 file.)
The value of listening to podcasts on your cell phone is tremendous. Piece most folk have not detected
of podcasts, there are virtually
thousands and thousands of podcasts out there, and each one is designed for a specific niche: the baseball enthusiast, a wine lover, a news junkie, an entrepreneur, and the list can go on and on. If you have a hobby or interest, you'll probably find a podcasts on it… or 10 podcasts on it!
Aside from topics, podcasts vary in length and quality: simply like television shows, they can have an interview format or a quiz show format or a monologue format, to name a few. They can be well done or poorly done.
Here's how it works: you find the podcast you are interested in and subscribe on your cell phone (it's free) and every time the podcaster creates a new podcast and attaches it to the RSS feed, it gets mechanically
loaded onto your phone.
So now you can stay on top of all the exciting news in your industry, or in a hobby or an area of interest that you mightiness have and you can do it all on your cellphone!
