Sorry for taking so long to get any new posts.  We promise to do better in the future.

A number of us just returned from a very successful Dreamforce event.  That is if you exclude the Dell commercial in one of the keynotes.  There was great information and sharing.  We are planning to do a debrief of the conference and plan for new meetings at our next session on November 19th from 4pm to 6pm. 

Please note that our previous venue has closed, so we will have this meeting at the following address:

We had a great turn-out for our kick-off meeting.  18 people attended, representing 11 companies. 

Our agenda covered the following:

• Welcome and General Announcements
• Introductions and review of each company represented
• Agreement on meeting expectations and future meeting logistics
• Future agenda and guest speaker ideas
• Lots of networking and discussion
  

Meeting notes and action items were sent to members for their review. 

We agreed that our meetings will be held on the third Wednesday of each Month from 4:00 to 6:00PM at Tasteology, 3400 Monroe Ave, Pittsford, NY (Across the street from Pittsford Plaza).   

The next meeting is scheduled for August 20th and I will send out a reminder prior to the meeting.

See you all then!

We are very excited to announce the creation of a User Group for salesforce.com customers in the Western New York area.  Rick Gary of Carestream Health has volunteered to lead the group and is planning a first meeting for Thursday, July 17th at 4:00.  The meeting will be Carestream's facility on Verona Street in Rochester.  He will need your help to make this user group a valuable resource where everyone can network, share ideas, and find creative solutions.  Just fill out the form on the left to get on the mailing list and look for information about the first meeting soon.

We hope you will get involved
