After Accel nabbed Salesforce exec and Chatter creator Chuck Ganapathi as EIR a few months ago, another Salesforce exec is heading to the venture world. Craig Weissman, Salesforce's former CTO, is joining Benchmark Capital as its latest Entrepreneur-in-Residence. Weissman, whose focus on Benchmark will be in the enterprise and big data space, has been working in enterprise software for the past 16 years. For the past eight years, Weissman has been a key engineering lead for the CRM giant, joining the company when it only had 10 developers in 2002.
