Google and SalesForce expand their alliance.

SalesForce.com and Google are at it again. Having first formed an alliance last July (2007), the companies have announced an expansion of this relationship. It is meant to further integrate the applications available through Google Apps into the Force.com development platform.

It remains to be seen what developers will cook up with this new alliance. However, it is a logical convergence between the two firms. For instance, Google's finance data could easily be available from within SalesForce.com, allowing a salesperson to have a quick read on a firm's current state while preparing for a sales call.
