Subscribing to an
Ivey Podcast
A podcast is an
audio or video file that you can subscribe to
online. Once you subscribe
to the podcast it will automatically show up in
your reader.
The majority of podcasts are
available as audio files in MP3 format,
syndicated through an RSS (XML) file. The
content is downloaded to your desktop PC or
mobile device.
It's not
streamed, so you can access the content when you
want (from
Getting Started with Podcasts by Mike
Hall).
In order to
subscribe to an Ivey podcast you will need to
install an RSS Reader/Aggregator (like Juice),
or a Media Player (like iTunes) on your
computer. Alternatively, you can also use an
online news reader like Google Reader.
