All Things Digital (also AllThingsD.com ) was a website that published reports, analyzes and tests related to information technology as part of technology journalism . The foundation in 2007 by Walter Mossberg and Kara Swisher was justified as a continuation of the previously held conferences with the name D: All Things Digital Conference . With the departure of Mossberg and Swisher and their re-establishment of Re / code , a conceptually very similar website including annual conferences, All Things Digital was discontinued at the end of 2013.
history
The first D: All Things Digital Conference took place from May 27-29, 2003, and interview guests included Steve Jobs , Bill Gates , Steve Case and Meg Whitman . The conference grew out of the journalistic work of Walter Mossberg and Kara Swisher in the technology department at the Wall Street Journal and quickly became the " gold standard for live journalism," according to The New York Times in retrospect All Things Digital became an independent division that, together with other subsidiaries of Dow Jones & Company , namely WSJ.com , MarketWatch , Barron’s and SmartMoney , formed the “Digital Network” of the Wall Street Journal .
Steve Jobs, who apart from product presentations hardly attended any appointments in public, was interviewed six times at this conference. The joint appearance with Bill Gates in 2007 is one of the most important interviews in the history of information technology.
After Mossberg and Swisher failed to come to an agreement on the renewal of the contracts with Dow Jones & Company in September 2013, the two of them left All Things Digital with all their full-time employees, including Lauren Goode and Peter Kafka , and independently founded the website Re / code , which was put online on January 1st, 2014. This went hand in hand with the discontinuation of the website, the naming rights remained with Dow Jones & Company and the domain has since been redirected to the technology section of WSJ.com . All previously published articles are still accessible regardless.
The conference D: All Things Digital had several guest appearances on the television series Silicon Valley , including both Walter Mossberg and Kara Swisher in person and in the opening credits of the second season the logo of All Things Digital is replaced by that of Re / code .
