Explore Free and available podcasting tools and tips as you create a quick and easy, professional looking podcast.

Podcasting is the creation and use of electronic audio and video files for use on a portable device, such as an iPod. Despite the name, an iPod is not necessary to view, listen to or create a podcast. A Video Podcast is also referred to as a Vodcast. Podcasting on a Mac is generally done using GarageBand, but there are many other applications that allow easy creation of these files. One of these is the free software Audacity.Another option is to use WimbaVoice recording software which is available in many VCCS Bb courses.

Perhaps the largest repository of podcasts is iTunes, another free tool created by Apple. iTunesU is a great place to locate and place resources.
