Follow Utterz as a podcast Feb01 '08

If you were to ask me the definition of a podcast, I'd tell you this:

A podcast is simply an RSS feed for audio or video enclosures.

And what's so special about a podcast RSS feed?

A podcast RSS feed is almost identical to a regular RSS feed, except that it contains the <enclosure> element.

Shifting gears slightly, Utterz is a social network for all types of blogging: audio, video, pictures, and text. Each user stream has an RSS feed for content updates.

Since "content" on Utterz can consist of audio or video enclosures, your Utterz RSS feed can also be used as a podcast feed! Plug it into iTunes and users can follow your Utterz audio or video updates on their portable devices, much like a traditional podcast.

This is a great way to "follow" someone using Utterz, if you prefer your podcasts to be digestible in one sitting, such as while driving in a car.
