Re: Critical emails on vermin? You've only yourself to blame

Well said.

Salesforce: There's no more Slack left to cut

Higher interest rates i.e. money no longer cheap + inflation = buying up businesses and their customer bases instead of investing to integrate apps into a platform to penetrate down below the "CRM" layer, was always going to run out of steam eventually.

Well, it is the Empire of enterprise IT... Oracle's Ellison plans 'Star Wars cyber defense' for his second-generation cloud

The lack of any mention of Salesfarce as a competitor must annoy the hell out of Bennyhoff and his "first Gen Cloud" sycophants!! Much lolz.

I used to have a 3DR until I realised how antiquated their tech is compared to DJI offerings. 3DR's demise is an interesting lesson in self aggrandisement (a disgruntled DJI exec helped set 3DR up), a poor business model and inferior tech.

Oracle 'systematically denies' its sales reps their commissions, forces them to work to pay off 'debts', court told

Oracle doing due diligence on Accenture. Yep, you read that right

Re: this doesn't make a huge amount of sense

high tide mark indeed when you consider the other news that broke today....https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2017/03/introducing-amazon-connect/

Very interesting on many levels. Accenture have a substantial and long standing relationship with salesforce, so any such merger would have an immediate and negative impact on salesforce. For the price of what Benioff was trying to flog himself to Microsoft in 2015 (https://goo.gl/tNCEaI), this could be a shrewd way for Oracle to torpedo their biggest competitor for a similar price with A> thrown in to boot.

watch your back Tesla...

Surely Apple will eventually tire (boom boom) of the hassle involved with producing hardware and slurp up Tesla and shoehorn in CarOS?

Goodbye Salesfarce

With their biggest and fastest growing competitor now in control of the world's largest and most up to date professional CRM platform, Salesfarce will face even more of a uphill struggle to justify the relevance and cost of their proprietary data silo. I recall SFDC attempted on numerous occasions to secure a close partnership with LinkedIn, only to be rebuffed every time.

Apple under CEO Angela Ahrendts? Hmm ... (beard stroke)

Wearable

If we believe 'technology futureologists' aka cooler yet geekier versions of Russell Grant, the future of consumer technology will increasingly focus on wearble devices increasingly integrated into the fabric (sorry) of our lives.

Surely Ahrents, with her Burberry pedigree, more than most would be a good bet on how this trend might translate into Apple fanboi nirvana?
