There have been a lot of bites at this particular apple, but LiveScribe is a good effort, as you will see.

By way of background, D: All Things Digital, the annual tech and media conference Walt Mossberg and I host, has been sold out with a long wait list every year we have put it on.

That has meant only a few hundred people can see the interviews and also demos we do live onstage with some of the tech and media industry’s most interesting and important players and products.

The lineups have included Microsoft’s Bill Gates and Apple’s Steve Jobs, as well as Eric Schmidt of Google, IAC’s Barry Diller, Meg Whitman of eBay, Cisco’s John Chambers and many others.

And we’ve demoed stuff like the Treo when it first came out, as well as digital toilets, Wi-Fi phones and much more.

We usually post the photos and videos of the interviews and demos six or more months after they take place on a separate conference site. This year, our Digital Daily’s John Paczkowski liveblogged D5 and also posted video highlights from all of the sessions immediately on our newly launched site here.

Now, we are posting videos of every session of the 2007 conference here, in full, and we have made all our photo galleries, hosted by SmugMug and mostly shot by our fabulous Asa Mathat, public too. You can also access our videos via the site’s master player here.

Every day, I am going to highlight a different interview or demo from the conference.

Here’s LiveScribe:

The link to the joint interview on iTunes is here, in video and also as a podcast. This link will connect you to the Gates/Jobs interview page on iTunes, but only if you have downloaded the iTunes software. As I said, I will post links on Microsoft platforms for both downloading and streaming as soon as they are up, which should be soon.

Speaking of NPR, Walt and I did a very early morning interview on “Morning Edition” about the various gadgets that we had onstage, including Microsoft’s Surface coffee-table computer and the LiveScribe smart pen.

The Surface, of course, got a lot of play after it debuted at the conference, because it was another example of Microsoft getting more into the hardware business. And it was also significant, because the idea of computing using more mundane objects is inherently interesting for anyone with a passing interest in when we will start living like the Jetsons.

And the LiveScribe smart pen is another attempt to bridge that gap between the analog and digital worlds and even merge them. Looking over my piles of notes from two books I did, I realized I would never look at them again, and it would have been nice to make them searchable. Of course, the implications for important scribbling that needs quick finding, such as by a doctor during an exam, are pretty obvious.
