My first time in the Moscone Center in San Francisco was for the largest trade show I’ve ever been to. Dreamforce X (2012). I first heard about Dreamforce this year from an ad in Spotify. This ad also mentioned that they had a free expo/keynote pass that you could sign up for. Being in the Valley, attending this for free seemed like a no brainer. The proposed speaker list looked pretty cool so I carved out a day to go check it out. After hopping on the Caltrain around 6AM, I arrived in San Francisco a little after 7. I walked a few blocks to where the Moscone Center was located and checked in. After checking in (they were really pushing QR codes here), I headed downstairs to stand in the massive line to get into the opening keynote. The opening keynote was attended by most of the 90K+ people at Dreamforce, and was broadcasted to over 30K+ live. It was an awesome keynote and gave me more insight into: how Salesforce worked, what Chatter was, and how various companies integrate parts of Salesforce into their operations. My friend Ryan works for one of those companies and I finally began to understand what he did. Plus, the sound system totally thumps (MC Hammer decided to show up). The Moscone Center was awesome (except for the wifi). Tons of power plugs, lots of bean bags to sit down in, and plenty of bathrooms. My free pass restricted me from some areas, so I decided to check out Salesforce’s onsite Social Media Command Center (smcc) and the Dreamforce Expo Floor. The Social Media Command Center was a pretty cool display of what you could do using various parts of the suite of products they offer. They actually had people working there and answering/sharing posts in real time. It seemed like an ideal desk for me :-) The expo floor is basically what you’d expect from an expo floor. It was huge, with a large center area taken by Salesforce themselves. Around the edges were several companies hawking their wares and services. I wandered from booth to booth till I came across the Google’s. Since I’m still deep in my “Android Experiment”, I jumped at the chance to play with a new Chromebook and a Nexus 7 in person. The newer Chromebooks are definitely an upgrade over my Cr-48. The screen seemed bigger and the increased speed was noticeable. The trackpad is a huge improvement over the Cr-48 (which has been universally panned). I think I see a Chromebox (the desktop version) or a Chromebook to replace my Cr-48 when it kicks the bucket in my distant future. The Nexus 7 was very similar to my Xyboard 8.2- albeit smaller. It did run much faster than the Xyboard, and it didn’t crash within 10 minutes of me using it. (I’m anxiously awaiting the ICS update to see if that helps with the stability.) I can see (again) the advantages of a smaller form factor and it seemed, to me, to be a solid device. After grabbing lunch and wandering around some more, I headed back to catch the “Fireside Chat” with Marc Benioff and Richard Branson. I’ve read one of Richard’s autobiographies a long time ago and it was cool to hear how his many failures helped define who he was. Like some other famous CEO’s, he suffers from learning disabilities (like myself) so its wonderful to see a role model like him talk. They did go off on a long tangent about US policy, which I didn’t expect, but neither of them pulled any punches either. It was almost a conversation you expected to hear around a round of brews (except for these guys, it would be on a yacht somewhere). Overall it was a really cool experience. I have no idea if I’ll be using Salesforce (or one of it’s…
