What’s a Podcast and how do I get the lessons?

According to Wikipedia a podcast is: ” …a media file that is distributed by subscription (paid or unpaid) over the Internet using syndication feeds, for playback on mobile devices and personal computers. Like ‘radio’, it can mean both the content and the method of syndication. The latter may also be termed podcasting. The host or author of a podcast is often called a podcaster.”

We chose to use the podcast format because it’s a very simple and flexible way to publish something on the internet. If you have a podcatcher (i.e. Itunes) you don’t even have to go to any page in order to download the file, the program does it automatically every time new entries are posted. So there are many ways you can get the lessons. You can download them by using a podcatcher, go to a Podcast directory and listen to the podcast there if available, or you can go directly to the BPP podcast page and listen right there.
