Well have I got the group for you!
SalesForce has reached a stage of maturity where they're focused less on innovation and more on capitalizing on all of their assets. Prior events focused on some form of evangelism, convincing people that the standard way of doing things was antiquated and a better option existed. Now, everybody is hip to what they're up to so there's less buzz.
DreamForce is just a brilliant marketing play now. Not much to see here that would be hackernewsworthy.
Fast Company published a great article called “The Amazing History of the To-Do List” yesterday. The article shares the story of how efficiency expert Ivy Lee transformed productivity at Bethlehem Steel.
“Lee’s advice to each member of the company’s management team was to write a to-do list at the end of each day, which consisted of the six most important tasks to be done the following day. Then they were told to organize the list based on the highest priority tasks.”
Good reminder Jason

A great example of digital technology facilitating in person communication.
Look forward to playing around with it.
