The coming years will see new digital media channels, devices, and modes of interaction emerge from the buildout of the past decade. The question now moves to which opportunities and models will thrive in this new ecosystem.
A generation has grown up digital, and the game is increasingly social. New platforms are mobile, new currencies are virtual, and the reality has been augmented. Where are the best investments of time and money for digital media in the social age? Spot the talent and projects that will reshape the territory in ways we haven't yet though of. Have your own ideas about the future of digital media? This will be the perfect platform to deliver your pitch.

Topic: Why (and How) to Rapidly Prototype for Multiple Devices
(Note: This event will be co-hosted with the Mobile Internet SIG)
The online world is changing fast, and new devices are becoming both more important and more varied. Building prototypes for web sites and web apps is getting harder, and the need to have a working prototype to use and get feedback on is more critical than ever.
In this talk we'll show you how to use Foundation, a new CSS/HTML/JS framework, to quickly prototype sites and web apps that work on any kind of device, at any resolutions, with a variety of capabilities and constraints. We'll look at creating complex layouts in minutes that let you easily try out different experiences and different JS interactions. The key to success in the new online world is rapid prototyping and iteration, so come hear about a slick new way to get things done.
There will be plenty of hands-on exercises, please bring your laptop and a healthy dose of energy.
