Here's hoping all our wishes come true in 2010 and we can return to just building nice, compact, well-integrated, easy-to-use applications -- nah, too boring probably :). Have a great 2010 y'all!

Last year, when Salesforce.com declared "the Death of Software" at Dreamforce, I wondered to myself, "what is it they plan on selling?" It's a stupid construct, almost as dumb as adding "Extreme" to things that can't ever be extreme (Extreme SFA! Extreme Guacamole! Extreme Plush Animals!). Great call on the “Death of…” cliche.

Just a few to avoid for 2010:

* media are replaced by social media
* social media will deliver a lot of new sales
* social media require no investment and are easy
* business-ICT alignment , that was only a condition for the future which you have hopefully achieved in 2009
* IT is not following my objectives (take control and solve it)

(and yes I know I stink at returning phone calls sometimes :) Its all this stuff with my day job that keeps getting in the way. I have you specifically in my calendar to call on Jan 4. Hope to connect) Anyway, back to the list (and I relish your cheeky writing style here. I'll see how many more times I can use parenthases in this comment for lack of knowledge of other punctuation). I would add "ownership" to the list. Who 'owns' social? Who 'owns' the customer? Who owns [fill in the blank) (brackets, not parentheses) This isn't the '49'er Gold Rush or land grab of the 1890's....oh wait, I guess in some ways, it was. Hopefully, "was" is the operative word. Let's not bicker and argue over who owns what. If you want to do something, go do it. Staking a claim to it just means, "I don't know what to do. But I don't want anyone else doing anything before me" That, my friend, is so 1990's corporate culture. Happy Holidays .-= Barry Dalton´s last blog ..<a href="http://custservicestories.blogspot.com/2009/12/wheels-came-off.html" rel="nofollow">The wheels came off</a> =-. Esteban,
