Phonecasting

Phonecasting is a portmanteau of telephone and podcasting, and simply means recording and listening to podcasts with a phone.

Traditionally, podcasters would require a microphone and recording software to create their programming. Phonecasting replaces the microphone with a phone. The recording software is replaced by the recording service and a dial in number to call and record to.

With "PhoneCasting", podcast audiences simply dial up podcast shows on demand from their phone. Quality of sound during phonecasting is similar to the quality of talking on a phone.
