    That's why it makes sense to buy a few companies to boost the cororate sales side of the business and leave the tech side of things to the geeks Reply

    Watch for Google Apps, Salesforce to Integrate [view article]
    Google is nowhere close to being ready-for-prime-time for the Enterprise market. In fact, Google has already botched up relations with Postini's own large corporate clients because of the February price changes. Microsoft has nothing to worry about with Google because Google has never had real live customers to care for and to nurture. Google is one mistake away from being a NON RELIABLE BUSINESS PARTNER.

    Behind the Myths of Cloud Computing [view article]
    I look forward to more articles about this subject. I have heard about cloud computing before, but outside of the tech world not much is known.
    This could really be a money maker for someone who is able to find
    which companies will benefit from this.     Reply

    Very interesting and thought provoking. However that focus on technology and yet "better" mouse trap, at the expense of underlying business processes quality, is what leads IT organizations to spiraling costs and diving satisfaction. Reply

    Benioff approached Cisco last October so this is old news. Given the Webex deal was done in 10 days and that they are now pitching Oracle it doesn't look good for a Cisco/Salesforce marriage Reply

    ZDS:

    First, I (like yourself) was tested on that specific question various times on the CFA exams; in my case, I was awarded my CFA charter in 2001.

    Second, I am not splitting hair since your example is egregious. You didn't just say **presumptuous**, you wrote **extremely** presumptuous.

    Cheers

    PS If you like, we can let the CFA Institute decide this issue.     Reply

    It seem strange to speculate that there is any reason for a corporate marriage for such a successful company in a growing market segment, but perhaps the reports of scalability issues and doubts in Salesforce ability to resolve these issues in a timely manner are a root of these rumors. Reply

    "eBay (EBAY) is looking to make its affiliate marketing an in-house venture. If it succeeds, eBay could dump ValueClick's (VCLK) Commission Junction."

    Doesn't Amazon do it's own affiliate marketing? You'd have thought this is a core competency for a company like eBay.     Reply

    Jim Cramer's Mad Money Lightning Round, 3/13/08: Sweet and Sour Apple [view article]
    Responce to Buz Sawyer, LtCol (AKA Defender of Cramer)

    Col. Klink justifies Cramer's flip flopping on BUY/SELL recommendations by glibly stating: "It seems it's all a matter of timing, my friend."

    How's THIS for TIMING? Last Tuesday (March 11) on Cramer's TV and XM Satellite radio show, he responded to a caller who was worried about their Bear Stearns stock and wanted to know if he should SELL it. Cramer shouted,"No! No! No! Bear Sterns is NOT in trouble. If anything, they're more likely to be taken over. Don't move from Bear... Don't be Silly!" 72 hours later (March 14) Bear Stearns stock was CUT in HALF! The next trading day it lost an ADDITIONAL 84 PERCENT! In 4 trading days the caller's stock went from 64 dollars per share to 4 dollars and change.

    Let me make it crystal clear:
    1. Jim Cramer is no longer in the investment business.
    He is in SHOW BUSINESS.

    2. The millions he now makes from his TV show, books, and tapes will cease the moment his viewers retreat from this horrendous market, because they will no longer have need for his advice.

    This is why he won't do the ethical thing and tell his neophyte investor viewers that they need to GET OUT OF THE MARKET. In a market environment that has bludgeoned many professionals to the sidelines, Cramer continues to tempt his largely inexperienced viewers to invest their hard earned money into an incredibly volatile market that has been trending strongly down for months.

    After a particularly bad day for stocks, Cramer will sometimes say, "I'm afraid you people are going to get out of the game." This from a man who has stated that current market conditions are the worst he has seen in his 37 years on Wall Street. When callers to his show frequently begin by saying, "I want to thank you for all you do for the 'little guy'" I want to puke!

    AMD is such a bargain right now it is amazing. The stock did get caught up in the day trading affect once it was so inexpensive. 5 Billion in revenue and a market cap about the same with solid margins? 2 $billion of the write of last year was imply paper, not cash. With $2 Billion in cash I think AMD will do just fine. The only profit play in the downward moving econmy in the sector. Reply

    How can you say they are targeting companies like Workday? Workday is going after mid-sized companies and now is setting it's sites on Enterprise scale corporations that currently run old implementations of peoplesoft or oracle software. My point being that while they may be in a similar technology, they currently are not in the same market share. Reply
