What is a "demo" exactly?

A question just came in from a reader:

"What would your presentation consist of? What is a defined demo?"

Response:

The presentation would be a short period of time (5-10 minutes max). First I would describe what features students, council members and administrators have expressed interest in. Then I would use a computer, keyboard and mouse with an internet connection (ie. the demo is live) to show how students, council members or visitors would use the site.

At the end of the demonstration council members should feel that progress is being made and that they have a clear idea about how they would use the site. Students and administrators should feel like they understand how they would participate in the site. Everyone should understand how the demo does or does not reflect the input I have received so far.

For students who can't actually be at the demo I am thinking about making a screencast.

If you have a feature you really want to see in the demo let me know.

Thanks,

Brody
