Facebook for Business
Posted by Alicia Schofield in Chatter, Facebook, Social Media
Salesforce.com recently announced a new service known as 'Chatter', which is basically"Facebook for the enterprise". This new service uses a lot of the popular social networking sites layout and configuration, however it isn't really to create a social network. The rational behind Chatter is to take the collaborative way that Twitter and Facebook work and utilize it for businesses. A key difference between Chatter and typical social media is that everything that takes place on Chatter stays on Chatter -- it will never be published anywhere else. This new service utilizes the real time nature of communication that people are becoming more and more accustomed to.
