This year, there will be only 56 DEMOfall demonstrators, down from 72 last year.
No doubt DEMOfall 2009 will be a much smaller event, which explains why the conference actually ends early, in the afternoon of the second day. A disappointment, for those – like me! – that got used to DEMO’s farewell dinner when the final DEMOgods awards are being distributed.

Ahead of DEMOfall’s debut next week, the conference organisers announced today that 56 never-seen-before products and/or concepts will be demonstrated at the show.
A big drop though compared to the 72 that were shown at last year’s event.
Nevertheless, TechPulse360 will be reporting live from the show floor at DEMOfall in San Diego, Calif., with video interviews and of course… demos!
The products and concepts launching at DEMOfall 09 include (no specifics here yet because we are respecting embargoes that we signed with those companies):
- A desktop application that allows consumers to organize and manage their IM, email and social network accounts from one single location;
- An organic shopping search engine that connects shoppers with online deals from their favorite merchants;
- An application that enables search and browsing of real time conversations in social networks;
- An agrisourcing platform that lets individuals, businesses and distributors buy, sell and find local food in their areas;
- A mobile application that lets online dating users identify the validity of who they are interacting with online via name, number or email address;
- An internal Twitter application for businesses that helps enterprises stay connected with customers, partners and the public;
- A video-conferencing tool that offers live collaboration for up to four people using rich media content over standard business networks; A private file system for enterprises that lets users create, open, edit, and manage files in the cloud directly from their desktop file explorer;
- A mobile mapping application for public places like convention centers and college campuses, that will allow users to navigate these indoor spaces via their phone;
- A language translation program that helps websites establish multi-language content channels to grow their businesses globally;
- A software tool that identifies the most influential thought leaders online for any given market segment or topic;
- An online commerce platform for media companies to manage their online and offline subscribers.
