Steve Jobs to Speak at All Things Digital Conference

Steve Jobs will appear as a guest speaker at the All Things Digital conference hosted by The Wall Street Journal in Los Angeles.

The Apple CEO is scheduled for an onstage interview on June 1, the opening night of the tech conference.

There is much to talk to Jobs about, obviously, including the new iPad, the mobile market and the iPhone, its tense relationship with Google (GOOG) and the next innovations from the Silicon Valley computer icon,” wrote All Things Digital columnist Kara Swisher.

Jobs has appeared a number of times at previous All Things Digital events. In 2007, Jobs and co-founder Bill Gates spoke in a joint session about their long history in the technology industry.

These onstage interviews tend to be interesting, as Jobs rarely speaks at events other than those carefully planned (and scripted) by his own company. At the 2003 All Things Digital Conference, for example, Jobs told writer Walt Mossberg that Apple wasn’t planning to produce a tablet, among other sneaky statements demonstrating the businessman’s knack for masterful misdirection.

This year’s All Things Digital conference takes place from June 1 to June 3 near Los Angeles. Other guests include director James Cameron, Microfot CEO Steve Ballmer and Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg.
