Podcast started as audio-blogging in the 1980s.

However, podcast began to catch on in 2004. Today there are 115,000 English language podcast available via the internet. According to survey over 42 million Americans listen to podcast on a weekly basis.

To get a little perspective on its history, the term podcast has been coined from the words ‘iPod’ and ‘broadcast’. At the very beginning, podcast creators used their iPods to listen to their RSS broadcasts.

The genesis of this ground-breaking content creation is credited to Adam Curry and Dave Winer from a mere meeting between the two technology practitioners 17 years ago. However, kinks and know-how weren’t quite ironed out until in 2005 when podcasting started finding its footing, gaining support from iTunes (Source: blubrry.com).

In an era, where reading has become increasingly less favoured by many, podcasting provides a viable option to consume content in audio form and in some instances, video.
