So, what exactly is a podcast? Generally, it's a short recorded audio dialogue on a topic of interest that can be played from a web site, or downloaded to a portable player such as an iPod. Podcasts are a great way to enhance your other written documents (eg., web sites, Powerpoint presentations, instructional procedures, news, stories, etc.) or they can be served up by themselves (eg., interviews, how-to tips, audio tours, lectures, etc.).
Why should I care about creating a podcast? Podcasts are a great way to enhance your other written documents (eg., web sites, Powerpoint presentations, instructional procedures, whitepapers, etc.) or they can be served up by themselves (eg., interviews, how-to tips, audio tours). If you're a professional in the communications field, then you may have frequent opportunities to record podcasts (events, lectures, interviews, photoshoots, etc.)
What makes a podcast "good"? Just like any other multimedia competing for your time, your level of interest, the content, and the delivery is what makes you come back for more. The podcast should focus on quality content (relevant, interesting, and hopefully, original) that's to the point. If the podcast is designed to enhance other material, then avoid being redundant and offer only content that adds value in some way.
