Just Noticed This in the Force.com IDE re: Sites - November 5, 2008 at 7:14 pm

 

So it’s post Dreamforce 08 — awesome.  Love DF, love getting home from DF. 

On the flight, I noticed something interesting: if you cruise into Eclipse, the plugins directory, where you have the Force.com IDE, you’ll see a "com.salesforce.ide.documentation.[a bunch of numbers]".  If you look in there, you’ll see a directory called "platform_labs", and if you look in there you’ll see a fair amount of info re: Force.com Sites.

All of which was released on 10/27/2008, several days before THE BIG ANNOUNCEMENT.

Note to self: look for hidden goodies in the next release of the IDE.

Ridiculously Happy About New Dev Account Limits - November 4, 2008 at 5:28 am

 

Pretty psyched about the new developer account limits: 2 full licenses, 3 platform, 5 partner, 10 customer.  Now that’s what I call a dev account.

Oh and yeah there’s sites in there too.

I’ll probably sign up for a second one today just so I have a spare.

While I’m thinking about it: I’ve heard a few people had some challenges with the Webassessor tool during their cert.  How long will it be before that tool is replaced by one built with native functionality? I’m guessing I won’t have to ask this question twice.

 

Everyone Get a Good Night Sleep Last Night? - November 3, 2008 at 4:45 am

 

Well, if you did, you definitely weren’t hanging out with me. Certification exam done (and passed — hooray), many people said hello to and one very late dinner at a very nice restaurant complete (thank you, Informatica geniuses). 

You’d think with all that I’d be asleep. You’d be wrong.  I’m up polishing some slides and I’m going to try to get a quick workout in before the 7:15a meeting.

Today: Keynote (should be awesome), Oh!Zone Customer Hero Theater (should also be awesome) and I’m pretty sure I’ll be at the booth at some point. 

Cheers!

At Dreamforce with Long List for Long Days - November 2, 2008 at 10:44 am

 

Just pulled into SFO.  The Nikko, actually.  I have a tiny room but boy is it quiet.  Love it!

Why?  It gives me space to get my thoughts together.  The next three days are going to be long ones — but they also promise to be very interesting. 

I’m kicking off with a cert exam, then heading to the global gala, dinner tonight at 9p.  Breakfast tomorrow at 7a, the keynote which should be super cool (looking forward to the new video — last years rocked), I present in the Oh!Zone at 12:30p and then to the booth for the rest of the day.

I think.

On top of this I have a list of about 100 people I want to "run into".

And one of my fellow bloggers is now telling me I’m late to meet him and another out front.

Awesome.  I’ll sleep on Wednesday.

PS Party at Foley’s on Tuesday?  Oh yes: party at Foley’s.  You’re invited.
