Etymology

The term 'podcasting' is a portmanteau of 'iPod' and 'broadcasting,' which emerged in the early 2000s. The word 'pod' references Apple's popular portable media player, the iPod, which popularized the format of downloadable audio files. The roots of podcasting can be traced back to the rise of RSS feeds, which allowed users to receive automatic updates from their favorite audio content. In 2004, journalist Ben Hammersley coined the term 'podcasting' in an article for The Guardian, which significantly contributed to the term's acceptance. Since then, the medium has evolved dramatically; with numerous platforms and tools making it easier for creators to launch their own podcasts, podcasting has become a mainstream form of entertainment and information dissemination.
