Dreamforce Video Tips – What’s Going On? and the App Crawl

Posted on September 14, 2007 by Jeff Grosse in Dreamforce, Productivity | Leave a comment

Today’s video tips cover how to be aware of what’s going on at Dreamforce as well as some info on an activity going on Sunday night at Dreamforce. 

First and foremost, if you want to know what’s going on at Dreamforce (of course you do), there’s one place you need to go.  The Dreamforce07 Channel at Jaiku. 

This will be a running log, minute by minute, of what’s going on at Dreamforce.  Many people will be contributing to this constant flow of information from blogs, photos, and microblog posts in the keynotes as well as through all activities. 

In light of the news that Visualforce, a new level of customization in Salesforce is launching at Dreamforce, you’ll want to tune in and see what’s happening.  If you’re at the conference, check the channel when you get a chance as it will be a good journal of what you’ve been hearing and probably some stuff you didn’t hear. 

If you can’t make it to Dreamforce, you don’t have to be in the dark.  You can either visit the Dreamforce07 Jaiku Channel or add it to your favorite RSS reader for perusing later. 

As for the Sunday activities, be sure to join the first App Crawl Pub Crawl at the Thirsty Bear Brewing Company just down the block from the Muscone.  This is an event hosted by about seven AppExchange partners.  There will be great giveaways there too.
