From Microsoft CRM conference (CRMUG)

I've spent the first part of the week at the Microsoft Dynamics CRM User-group (CRMUG) conference in Orlando. First of all, the weather here has been unseasonably warm (90) and there's are two hour lunch breaks. So spending lunch poolside working on a winter tan can make any conference solid. 

But It's been very interesting to hear how a myriad of companies and industries are integrating their contact management systems with their social media strategy, front-end content management systems and ERP/accounting back-ends.

I'll do a full write-up later, but suffice it to say, it's a brave and fun new world out there for marketing technology.

Here's a pic of the laborious lunch hour at CRMUG...
