Salesforce Acquires Dimdim

Salesforce.com announced today that it has acquired real-time communication outfit Dimdim for $31 million in cash, making a boldfaced comparison to Facebook by way of backing it up. According to Chairman and CEO Marc Benioff, the acquisition will help Salesforce “deliver to the enterprise the same integrated collaboration and communication experience that made Facebook the world’s most popular Internet site.” No word yet on who will portray Benioff in the movie version.

About Voices

Along with original content and posts from across the Dow Jones network, this section of AllThingsD includes Must-Reads From Other Web Sites — pieces we’ve read, discussions we’ve followed, stuff we like. Six posts from external sites are included here each weekday, but we only run the headlines. We link to the original sites for the rest. These posts are explicitly labeled, so it’s clear that the content comes from other Web sites, and for clarity’s sake, all outside posts run against a pink background.

We also solicit original full-length posts and accept some unsolicited submissions.
