Today's Story Highlights

Stock Price Rises as Twitter Slashes Jobs, Uproots Vine
Twitter shares were up Friday following a third-quarter earnings report
that beat Wall Street estimates despite declining revenue growth.
Twitter also announced a widely expected round of job cuts and the
unexpected shutdown of Vine. Twitter has been on financial oxygen in
recent weeks, after failing to find a buyer. Investors applauded the
news that it will slash 9 percent of its workforce.

IBM's Watson Smartens Up iOS Enterprise Apps
IBM has announced that it will incorporate its IBM Watson cognitive
capabilities into the MobileFirst for iOS ecosystem to help boost the
productivity of the global workforce. It was a little more than two
years ago that the company entered a groundbreaking partnership with
Apple to enhance the mobile enterprise space. The move is part of an
overall rollout of enhancements to IBM's Watson tech.

The End of Marketing
This is going to be political but you won't be able to tell which side
I'm on. You might ask, why on Earth would I get involved even
tangentially in politics right now? The simple answer is that it impacts
CRM and I have a viewpoint -- but as I say, I'm not picking or revealing
a side. I've been doing research in business agility lately -- a
fascinating area that soon will impact CRM.
