As we pointed out yesterday, Seesmic’s social “DNA” has been a founding block since its beginning, and is a key part of who we are as we move into the enterprise space. The social mobile enterprise is a notion that Seesmic is working to make a reality.
Here at Dreamforce, salesforce.com’s annual conference, we caught up with Tom McCleary, salesforce.com‘s Senior Director of Product Strategy, to ask him about his vision of the social mobile enterprise :
As well as our own Director of Mobile Products, Stéphane Debelque, who explained the vision behind Seesmic CRM :
Seesmic is now comprised of two product suites: Seesmic CRM and Seesmic Social. Each of these suites are integral to Seesmic’s future, and together they will revolutionize the way individuals and organizations connect around the globe.
Seesmic Social Users: We thank you for your continued support as Seesmic grows. You played an integral part in helping Seesmic become a leader in social and mobile applications, and this is just the beginning.
Seesmic has been social since the beginning and continues to value and support its free tools that allow all of you and us to connect with people no matter where we are. It’s a core value of ours and will continue to be as we create the second branch of Seesmic, Seesmic CRM?
Seesmic CRM Users: Welcome to Seesmic. We’re thrilled to have your feedback of our beta application of Seesmic CRM for Android, and your excitement as we prepare to launch Seesmic CRM on iPad and Windows Phone 7.
Seesmic is working with businesses to make them more mobile and social
As we’re here at Dreamforce, demo’ing Seesmic CRM on Android and iPad, we caught up with Tom McCleary, Senior Director of Product Strategy, who shared his vision of the Social Mobile Enterprise with us :
And Rob DeVenuto, a salesforce.com Senior Sales Engineer, who gave us his first impression of Seesmic CRM:
And last but certainly not least : as excited as we are to launch Seesmic CRM, however, there are some things, as Boris Geyzer explains, that Seesmic CRM ..can’t.. do for you

This is just the beginning. Now that Seesmic CRM for Android Beta is live, let the conversations – and iterations – begin.
With less than 18 hours until Dreamforce and even less time until our app goes live to the public, all hands are on deck. We thought we would share some photos of what we are up to right now.
We can’t forget our beloved Androids – thanks to Motorola, our devices are charged and ready to go.
