Podcasting Feeds
Podcasting is much like an RSS Feed (see above), except instead of receiving new content to read, you receive new audio content to listen to with an MP3 player. A Podcasting receiver automatically downloads new MP3's as they are added to RiverhillsOnline.org, which can then be directly added to your portable MP3 player or played on your desktop using an MP3 compatible player.
Help Getting Started with Podcasting
You need to install a Podcasting Receiver (see our list of popular Podcasting appplications below). Once you have a receiver installed, subscribe to any Podcasting feed by copying the xml url into your reader. To subscribe to the channel, right-click on the PodCast icon on the RiverhillsOnline.org site and choose Copy Shortcut. Switch to your receiver and follow the menus to add the channel (see specific application documentation). Once you have subscribed, your receiver will automatically check the channel for updates.
The format used is RSS 2.0 with enclosures.
