Yahoo Releases Podcast Search Engine

Yahoo Releases Podcast Search Engine

Yahoo has just released their podcasting search engine. Podcasting is the way forward, whether it be videocasting or audiocasting - which broadly falls under mediacasting.

What the heck am I saying?????

Ok, let’s start from the beginning! What is a Podcast?

Wikipedia defines podcasting as:

Podcasting is a method of publishing audio broadcasts via the Internet, allowing users to subscribe to a feed of new files (usually MP3s). It became popular in late 2004, largely to automate downloading of audio onto portable players or personal computers.

So what is videocasting? Well, the same thing, but basically use video files instead of audio.

Then what the heck is mediacasting? Mediacasting is the sum total of podcasting and videocasting and any other form of casting.

What’s next? Well, Smellcasting! Think I’m joking? Check out this article from New Scientist.

Just, in case, I’ve gone ahead and registered SmellCasting.com!
