A Webcast is a form of Web conferencing that uses streaming media technologies to broadcast video and/or audio over the Internet from a single content source to many listeners or viewers simultaneously. Essentially, Webcasting allows for a limited one-way communication; so it is like “broadcasting” over the Internet. A Webinar is essentially a seminar delivered over the Web. In most cases, a Webinar has a presenter (or multiple presenters) and provides some level of limited interaction between the presenter and the participants.
