Crowdsourcing, or asking your customers for content, is a great way to get feedback and insights on your product while fueling new content. For Salesforce, Summer '13 is officially live, and with over a 100 major new features, there is a lot to love. So we asked our Twitter followers for feedback about the feature announcement in an effort to learn more from our customers. What's your favorite Summer '13 feature? Let us know in the comments or by sending us a tweet @salesforce!

Chatter Publisher Actions let's you create actions and add them to the Chatter publisher on the homepage, the Chatter tab, and record detail pages to increase productivity and streamline interactions.
@salesforce If I only get to pick one, it would be Owner Fields in custom formulas. Amazing!

In Summer ‘13, we’ve opened up the Owner lookup and made its fields available for cross-object formulas.
@salesforce Definitely looking forward to 'Selective Contact Sync' in Salesforce for Outlook.
— Jamie Sandford (@jsandford) June 13, 2013
The automatic sync method is pretty convenient, but for some users, syncing all of their contacts, events, and tasks is overkill, so we’ve added the option for users to manually select the items to sync between Outlook and Salesforce!
@salesforce Chatter, Marketing Cloud, Sales Cloud , service Cloud ... I mean where do I stop :)
