Peter Morville of semantic studios gave a good talk about ambient findability and information architecture - which is also the title of his new book due in September.Here is a link to his presentation.
Howard Tiersky of CapGemini.com gave an ease of use presentation. He talked about personas, heuristic analysis, etc. Basically an IA 101 course. We already do this stuff.
The Disney Legacy presentation discussed the transformation from hand-drawn to GC. They were careful to preserve the principles learned for many decades. It was a good reminder of the value of using black, gray, and white, then color to stage a scene. Visual hierarchy is important and dont show anything that doesn't reinforce the story. Put a spotlight in the scene and then put the character in it.
They also showed a clip from Rapunzel that was ASTONISHING. It is the first time a master traditional animator has latched onto technology and made it look like a storybook instead of like Toy Story.
