Dreamforce Keynote – Chatter and the Platform

November 18, 2009 by David Schach Leave a Comment

There is no way to write one post to cover everything, so I want to address one thing that some people may not have noticed: Salesforce Chatter is being pushed as a platform layer. Looking at the “chiclet” slide that Marc Benioff unveiled, let’s start with the “old” slide: Yes, this is not the exact […]

November 18, 2009 by David Schach Leave a Comment

The keynote hasn’t even started and already there is a lot of chatter on twitter and the web about salesforce.com’s new offering: Salesforce Chatter. In the Blog Pound, we were given books of Service Cloud success stories and chattering-teeth.

Trigger to help Salesforce for Twitter

October 6, 2009 by David Schach Leave a Comment

Salesforce for Twitter is one of the best AppExchange packages I've seen. It fulfills the promise salesforce.com made to bring the Service Cloud to all orgs of all sizes. And it works well.

Filtered Lookups, Validation Rules, and Order of Execution

October 6, 2009 by David Schach Leave a Comment
