Twitter top applications for web ,mobile and desktop

March 4 2010 Categorized Under: Web sites No Commented

Twitter is a free service that lets you keep in touch with people through the exchange of quick, frequent answers to one simple question: What’s happening?

Twitter is a free social networking and microblogging service that enables its users to send and read messages known as tweets. Tweets are text-based posts of up to 140 characters displayed on the author’s profile page and delivered to the author’s subscribers who are known as followers. Senders can restrict delivery to those in their circle of friends or, by default, allow open access. Since late 2009, users can follow lists of authors instead of following individual authors. All users can send and receive tweets via the Twitter website, Short Message Service (SMS) or external applications. While the service itself costs nothing to use, accessing it through SMS may incur phone service provider fees.

Since its creation in 2006 by Jack Dorsey, Twitter has gained notability and popularity worldwide. It is sometimes described as “SMS of the Internet. The use of Twitter’s application programming interface for sending and receiving text messages by other applications often eclipses direct use of Twitter.

What we have to do is deliver to people the best and freshest most relevant information possible. We think of Twitter as it’s not a social network, but it’s an information network. It tells people what they care about as it is happening in the world.

Twitter can be used with the help of several applications which helps micro-blogging to be at its best. The different useful top applications according to the categories are as follows:

Top Ten Salesforce.com APplications in App Exchange !

February 23 2010 Categorized Under: Technology 3 Commented

As i was reviewing the sales force here are some applications grading with top user experience .

  1. SalesView:
Of all the free Apps on the exchange list, Sales View may be perhaps the most valuable for your sales team. This App which was built specifically for Sales Force allows your sales team to instantly tap into a plethora (that’s twice now if I use the word one more time I own it) of sales resources such as Hoover’s, D&B, Reuters, Jigsaw, NetProspex, LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook to get all they’d ever need to know about a potential client.
Losing hours of time inputting contacts from e-mails and web-leads? With Contact Capture simply highlight the contacts information in an e-mail or on a website and Contact Capture automatically inputs the necessary contact information in Sales Force.
3. Google Web Analytics:

Currently using google analytics to analyze your website? This free App allows you to track web page visits, browser capability, average visit time, and much more right from your dashboard. This is the perfect tool for any SalesForce user who also does work with their businesses search engine optimization and websight design.

I think every sales person and executive has been frustrated at one point or another in their sales force experience by running into the issue of duplicate leads. End the frustration with this nifty App that scans your entire SalesForce database and removes duplicate leads.
This free Skype application provides seamless Skype integration into Salesforce application.
6. SalesForce for iPhone:

Personally, I’ve never been cool enough to own an I-Phone, but for those of you that are this is a great App that allows you to instantly pull up SalesForce.com and log in to your account on your iPhone. Currently the I-Phone is the only smart phone with free SalesForce access (Blackberry charges). This one will most likely be a big hit in interactive agencies.

7.Form Factory Quotes & Invoices:

A great application software development, I’ll use the Apps own description “FormFactory generates business forms including quotes, proposals, invoices, and packing slips. Documents can be delivered as live web forms, PDF or HTML files, and Microsoft Word. Create professional quality forms for free without leaving salesforce!”

8.Auto Complete Lookup:

Granted this App will not triple your revenue, however it will make it much easier for your employees to instantly find the information they are looking for. This quick script creates a Google-type search interface in which typing a few letters into the search box provides you with options of the closest matches.

9. E-Mail Auto Complete:

This nifty light-weight App provides you with access to all your contacts directly from the Salesforce Email page. Provides you with similar functionality to that of the auto complete search.

10. Mass Transfer Contacts:

If only someone had written this top 10 list before me I would have not had to spend 8 hours moving one of my sales reps contacts to another sales reps contact after the previous one left.  This app allows you to instantly shift all contact ownership from one sales person to another, a great tool for anyone using sales force for email marketing.

Happy Birthday Facebook with new 2010 Look

February 7 2010 Categorized Under: Uncategorized one Commented

The new Facebook Layout for 2010 has been released, and the social media site creators are hoping the new design inspires the 350 million users to use the site in brand new ways.

The changes to your Facebook page are subtler than the last redesign, but there are definitely some big shifts. First, the search box has been moved to a more prominent position in the middle of the page. Secondly, on the left side of the page, the new Facebook now shows you which of your friends are online automatically, rather than having to click on the chat tool at the bottom right corner of the screen.

While the changes this time around are more subtle, and seem less obtrusive and drastic as the last major layout redesign, there is sure to be controversy. With every redesign comes backlash from users who have become accustomed to the regular design.The Search bar is on top As the windows kind of utility now its bit changed with games and other applications are being show on the top left of page.
