DF15

they have two customers: drivers and riders

Travis just suggested they favor drivers not riders

Much better living than driving a taxi being uber driver says CEO Uber

License scarcity has been b-school case study for generations; finally someone like Travis takes it on

Taxi drivers are living in Plato's Cave

Uber fills the gaps economically for drivers says Travis ceo uber

Uber has so much geo location data - @benioff ask that question uplevel this convo pls

"we built Uber bc taxi industry was broken" says Travis CEO of Uber

Uber CEO "didn't know it (uber) was going to work..it was a dream"

say @DanielHoeBr Daniel G Horner Hoe
We started cold calling limo services in SF - @Uber CEO #startup #DF15

But when will @benioff quiz @Uber CEO Travis on data privacy/collection activities by Uber?

Most conversations I hear on IoT are vague with customers unclear what they're trying to get out of the idea of IoT integration. There's plenty going on in manufacturing so how will SF respond?

. @dahowlett what does beta mean for SF? Do they have a shot at this? what's your take?

Love the 3 planks of SF #IoT: 1) Providing the ability to listen to wealth of data generated by the IoT or any other data source by capturing billions of events that occur daily

- no different to any other beta. In that context you could almost regard last year's Wave announcements in the same way. Only now coming to mainstream. In IoT terms though they have time. This is not fully baked.

plank 2: Triggering actions based on real-time rules using simple and intuitive tools

plank 3: Enabling proactive one-to-one engagement through Salesforce allowing actions to be taken via any of the other clouds in the portfolio

@furrier The big issue though is what 'bits' of IoT data matter in the context of real time actions? More marketing?

What is the status of Wave? Chatter has not been doing well from a sw perspective from what I hear

@furrier We really need to hear the updates. I was skeptical about Wave last year. See: http://diginomica.co...

. @dealarchitect taxi drivers who don't own their own license are just a cog in the wheel not making much money

hey @dealarchitect @furrier Travis is in rare form on stage

Uber pool is good bus dev strategy and great for sales folks

Good idea!

also @dahowlett would love this

I'm in

Dennis is in the house

Do you want to schedule some chats throughout the week ??

I think the main one needs to be around MBs keynote

1st integration attempt > inconclusive

would you say this is Duet but one that works?

This Thunder technology must be what Microsoft's using to nag me about a Windows 10 upgrade......

@dahowlett looks like they just start. http://microsoft-new...

Welcome about Captain - Uber for boats = Dreamboat

how does sales orchestration suite blend with #iot sounds like trendjacking to me.. where's the beef?

Salesforce getting into customer service support with the physical world - a big leap but a good direction

more than the NSA, for anti-laundering bunch of other agencies interested

@dealarchitect and we already know how aggressive those agencies can be

we are picking up the main feed

> not sure how many feeds they're supporting

I agree now they need to continue to do the #bigdata and scale up the backend ops

. @dealarchitect Uber goal - every car Ubered - solves traffic problem.
