Television Meets the Web; Web Meets the Television
The lines between high-definition television experience and the on-demand Internet video experience are beginning to blur. Television modalities are shaping the Internet experience and Web video is improving to meet the expectations of demanding television viewers. But the question remains: Is there anything good on?

Special Session: Walt and Kara: Head-to-Head
As the hosts of The Wall Street Journal's esteemed D Conference, Walt Mossberg and Kara Swisher have challenged the leaders of the digital world with tough questions and probing interviews. Their toughest interview isn't with Steve Jobs or Bill Gates, though. It's with each other. The Dynamic Duo of All Things Digital debate each other on their blog, AllThingsD.com, and now live on the DEMOfall stage. What lies ahead for the Digital Age? Walt and Kara go Head-to-Head.

Open Studios: Designing, Building, Working Together
Whether building an interactive game, working on an important business opportunity, or just sharing your latest creation, collaboration is at the centerpiece of today's work and social interactions. Some of these products couldn't be more different from the others, but each embraces the trend toward seamless cooperation.

Protecting What's Yours
It's easy to think of security as enterprise firewalls and encryption techniques. But as individuals become increasingly responsible for libraries of work and personal data, protecting and managing digital assets takes on many facets.

DEMO Roundtable:
The Changing Venture Model: Making VC Work for Investors and Entrepreneurs

The discussion explores whether the current model of venture investing and how VCs approach it still "works" and if not, how could it change to make it serve both parties better. (Keeping in mind that entrepreneurs first and foremost need money from VCs and VCs first and foremost need to make money from entrepreneurs.)

It's Easy Being Green
Over the last 12 months, we've encountered a lot of products that wash themselves in green paint, hoping to capitalize on the eco-IT movement. A collaboration application may mean you don't have to drive to a meeting, but calling it "green IT" is a bit of a stretch. These products, on the other hand, really do stand to make an impact.

And it's Getting Easier to Manage the Green, too.
Ever since Scott Cook and Tom Proulx decided to take on pen and paper checks in the late 80s, personal financial management software has changed very little, but for its move from disk to online service. These two companies bring a fresh new set of thinking to the management of finances, and go well beyond balancing of a check book.

Mission: Possible
There is plenty of talk about double and triple bottom lines and about a new age of activism. But how do you get involved and how do you know you're making an impact?

Web 2.0 Gets to Work
Perhaps the greatest contribution of the Web 2.0 innovation cycle is the influence of Web 2.0 concepts, architectures, and user sensibilities on business applications. From SaaS to social applications, Web 2.0 will make its mark on business software.

Defining the Next Web
The Next Web, the phase that comes after but is tremendously influenced by Web 2.0, will be defined by several key attributes: transparency, distribution, and proactive smarts. Transparency of business model, participants, data uses, and motivation is critical to bring trust and with it increased mainstream adoption of the social Web. In the New Web, sites needn’t attract and aggregate audiences; instead, they will distribute their data and applications as widely as possible to other sites and outlets. And the smarter Web will surface the information you need, when you need it, in a form that allows you to best use it.

DEMO Roundtable:
Where the Web is Going: Web 2.0, 3.0 and Beyond

Ask five different technologists to define the next phase of the Web and you will get five different answers. As we move beyond the community-driven focus of Web 2.0, the theories of what lies ahead are rampant and disparate. Will the next Internet revolution lie in semantic technologies or data portability? Search engines or user-generated content? Where does the enterprise fit? And how will big media adapt? In an attempt at achieving clarity, DEMOfall goes straight to key sources for answers.
