Podcasting

Podcasting is a way to receive audio files over the Internet. Many content providers offer netcast feeds at no cost. These feeds deliver audio broadcasts to your desktop. You can listen to these files on your computer or load them on to your MP3 player and take them with you. All you need to get started is podcasting software. Once you download and install the software, simply add one of our netcast feeds. The podtcasting software will automatically check for updates and download the files to your computer so you can load them onto your MP3 player.

Examples of Podcasting software:
  • iTunes (Windows/OS X)
  • Juice (Windows/OS X/Linux)
  • iPodder (Windows)
  • iPodderX (OS X)


Vodcasting

Vodcast or video podcast is an emerging term used for the online delivery of video on demand video clip content via Atom or RSS enclosures. The term is an evolution specialized for video, coming from the generally audio-based podcast and referring to Video On Demand (VOD) and (web-, narrow-, broad-) casting where the RSS feed is used as a non-linear TV channel to which consumers can subscribe using a PC, TV, set-top box, media center or mobile multimedia device.
 

Animations

Through a series of high-quality animations, the Interactive Body demonstrates how the organs and structures of human body function and presents information on medical procedures used to diagnose and treat various conditions and diseases. For users without speakers or unable to hear the audio, the full text of the animation accompanies the visual display and an accessibility version of the animation may also be selected.
