Dreamforce 2009.  Keynote – Day 1. Marc Benioff (CEO, salesforce.com) and Parker Harris (Co-founder. Head of Technology, salesforce.com) introduce Chatter: ” … it’s very very simple … the magic of Facebook and Twitter brought to the enterprise. … Join the conversation.”

The book publisher Packt (pronounced Packed) have just announced “… that WordPress has won the Overall Best Open Source CMS Award in the 2009 Open Source CMS Awards.” This is the first time WordPress has won this Award.

Drupal, another CMS that I support, won the Best Open Source PHP CMS Category in the 2009 Open Source CMS Award. For this category there was a very close contest between the top three: Drupal, WordPress, and Joomla!
