Your Success -- Our Cloud

That was the theme of salesforce.com's sold out (9,000) Dreamforce 2008 conference in San Francisco earlier this week. Talk about being in the right place at the right time, salesforce.com has benefited from the recent focus on cloud computing and in fact can even be considered as the poster boy for cloud computing. It's hard to think of salesforce as an infrastructure company but that's clearly the direction that they're heading in -- platform in the cloud (PaaS), force.com Sites and even a relationship with Facebook -- force.com for Facebook (enabling developers to easily use the Facebook APIs within their Force.com applications). To use their term -- "Enterprise Social Apps" are right around the corner. Could Facebook be the next enterprise killer app?
