The notable news I discuss in this two minute video include:

China’s surprising prominence at Dreamforce
Salesforce Genie, the keynote announcement of real-time data across all cloud

Y’all know I love Dreamforce and it has changed my life, multiple times over.
But I can’t help but wonder, in 2022, if Salesforce, the community, and the world has changed so much that Dreamforce is no longer the must attend event it once was. Let’s talk about it.
In this video I’ll break down all the ways Dreamforce has changed over the years, for better or for worse, and ultimately make a recommendation as to whether or not you should spend your hard earned money to attend.

P.S. I’ve been away for a good bit, but it’s great to be back! Thank you for all the kind words while I was gone!
