Chatter to Become the Primary Salesforce Interface

Chatter to Become the Primary Salesforce Interface

By Denis Pombriant on March 28, 2013

I flew home from Microsoft Convergence in New Orleans arriving back in Boston around 9:00 PM last Thursday.  I was tired from capturing a week’s worth of information from the Microsoft fire hose for the previous four days.  But on Friday a Tsunami named Salesforce.com blew into town to inaugurate a world tour trumpeting the […]

OpenWorld Perspective

OpenWorld Perspective

By Denis Pombriant on October 10, 2012

I went to Oracle OpenWorld as a guest of Oracle and came away with a variety of observations that I can share.  Some of what I saw was under NDA and that will remain undisclosed though I have to tell you that I did not see any labs or next generation products beyond what my […]

Building Your Corporate Legacy

Building Your Corporate Legacy

By Denis Pombriant on March 12, 2012

Yammer announced an impressive $85 million financing last week.  You can get the details here http://mwne.ws/wp4GtZ . You might already know that Yammer provides enterprise social networks, the kind of collaborative spaces that enable employees to “swarm” on issues to achieve resolution or deal with a customer issue for instance.  Yammer claims that more than […]

Ctrl – Alt – Social

Ctrl – Alt – Social

By John Taschek on February 21, 2012

In the tech world in which everything is recycled, retooled, and spit out like un-digestible gristle, one often comes across the phrases such as groupware is “dead” or “email is dead.” Oddly enough these are euphemisms or perhaps more correctly the opposite: dysphemisms – the substitution of a disagreeable word…

The Social Revolution Has Just Begun

The Social Revolution Has Just Begun

By John Taschek on January 4, 2012

Depending on whom you ask, 2011 was either the year of the iPad or the year of social. The truth is that they were and are equally weighted because they are catalysts for each other, and while each can exist without the other, imagining such a thing is like trying to imagine a world where […]

Dreamforce 2011, the Recap

Dreamforce 2011, the Recap

By Michael Fauscette on September 3, 2011

The multitude of clouds floating around on light poles, buses, and buildings in San Francisco are coming down and the sounds of Metallica have stopped echoing in the streets as people (over 40,000 of them) flock to the Bay Areas’…

Number 9 Dreamforce

Number 9 Dreamforce

By John Taschek on August 31, 2011

For a Beatles’ fan and a fan particularly of John Lennon, the number 9 has an important meaning. It has enough meaning Lennon wrote a few songs referencing it, including Number 9 Dream. Perhaps I like Number 9 Dream because it seems to be, quite literally, calling my name on the background vocal track. But […]

Is Collaboration Worth It? Yup!

Is Collaboration Worth It? Yup!

By Denis Pombriant on June 13, 2011

Someone recently asked me why collaboration is important in the enterprise.  To be specific, they were asking about the kind of collaboration that products like Yammer and Chatter enable.  This collaboration consists of enabling people to share thoughts, ideas and micro news bits in a social context without the usual institutional overhead of email or […]

Cezanne's Apple

Cezanne’s Apple

By John Taschek on April 7, 2011

Cezanne wrote once “With an Apple, I will astonish Paris.” Cezanne at the time was a notoriously sophisticated and gifted walking set of contradictions. He loved everything he hated and hated everything he loved. He approached painting with scalpel-like precision but with a scalpel to canvas nonetheless. He wanted the world to bleed – and […]
