Ever since the dawn of Web 2.0, there has been a revolution that's underway. The new(er) web has been dramatically changing the way folks live, work, interact - whether for accomplishing their work or personal goals.

Enterprise-adoption of these "social" channels is on the rise, but has been slow to pick up since the past few years, barring may be examples of a few who hopped on to the Social Media bandwagon.Last week, at Salesforce.com's premier event, Dreamforce 2011, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff's Keynote presentation showcased

The messaging and presentation was engaging, crisp, and invigorating ( a la Steve Jobs, may be?).In case you missed this major, annual event of the pioneer of Cloud-based (SaaS) services, then check out the presentation (and don't forget to tune in to the keynote video too).
Hope you enjoy it. And, should we say, don't hesitate to socialize this, if you like it. Cheers!
