# “Podcasting” Added to the Oxford English Dictionary

I’m a day behind but not a word short. CBC reported yesterday that podcast, phishing and wiki are among the new additions to the second edition of the Oxford English Dictionary.

(http://www.cbc.ca/story/arts/national/2005/08/11/Arts/oxfordenglish050811.html)

Second edition? The first edition was published in full in 1928. Is there a certain number of words that have to be added before it is considered a new edition vs. a new printing? Curious.
