A podcast is an audio file, typically in MP3 format, which you can subscribe to using podcasting software. Once you subscribe to a
podcast, you will receive automatic updates as new content becomes available. You can listen to the podcast on your personal
computer or transfer it to a portable media player and take it with you.
Podcasting software allows you to subscribe to and manage your podcast feeds. Some examples of podcasting software include
Apple's iTunes, Google Reader and MyYahoo.
To subscribe to a podcast, click on the button for your preferred podcasting tool. If you do not see a button for your tool,
simply highlight the URL in the text box, and copy and paste it into your podcasting software.
An MP3 file is an audio format that is often used with the latest technology. For example, if your computer has a sound card and
can play MP3 audio files, you can listen to the MP3 file on your computer. You can also transfer the file from your computer to
any portable media device that is compatible with MP3 files, such as an MP3 player, an iPod and some cell phones.
You can download the MP3 file for any of our podcasts by clicking on the link named "Listen to or download the MP3." A window

For Windows users, right-click on the link named "Right-click to download the MP3" and select "Save Target As..." or "Save Link

Link to Disk" or "Save Link As..." depending on your browser. A dialog box will appear and prompt you to select a location on your
computer to save the file.
