But Mike I agree it can be hard to connect the dots with Google and SFDC ... they are clearly converging as Google pushes into enterprise apps, and as SFDC expands its Force.com platform beyond SFA/CRM ... but their classic cores (consumer/G - SFA/CRM for SFDC) still do not overlap dramatically, so IMHO you never exactly know what the next step will be, as it's the companies thinking a few steps ahead ...

The salesmanship power being brought to bear here is also worth noting--the force (of sales) is strong in Benioff and Gundotra. I've pondered before whether GOOG would retain the speed and flexibility as they got big. Their execution here is a good sign for them.
