This week on twitter we had a bunch of great topics and posts. First, Successforce had some really great stuff, promoting new blog articles and apps by Salesforce Labs. In case you dind’5 know, this account is Managed by @kingsley2 & @erica_kuhl. We had some great info and tips from users of Salesforce and Developers. Some are just reminders and some include new content that should be reviewed by all Salesforce admins. Oh, and the most fun topic- selecting the Spring 09 logo for Salesforce. I like the coconut.
First, there was talk about the SaaS summit and still some buzz about the Salesforce Cloud computing video and the Salesforce Success Tour. A number of Tweeters including myself (@inboundmarketer) tweeted about the Spring 09 release certification exam to keep admin credentials up-to-date. I’m excited to announce I passed the update exam, and wish those who haven’t taken it yet lots of luck.

And hey, in the comments you may want to try to answer these questions for tweeters looking for a hand:
BruceViaPost Why can’t I create a new lead in salesforce just by forwarding a mail into the dropbox? Really, how hard could it be to parse out the name?
salesforceIUS finding real problems using Vertical Response and Salesforce. It eats up all our storage. Anyone have good workarounds??
Finally, I just wanted to mention that one of my favorite Salesforce developers has joined Twitter. @michaelforce. His first tweet was a great one:
@michaelforce I’m confirmed as a panelist for the cloudforce event in NYC on the 23rd… Marc is supposed to make a big announcement… any guesses?
