ArcGIS.com is now available

On May 24, 2010, in ArcGIS Online, Services, by mzurn

05/24/10–We are pleased to announce that ArcGIS.com is now in public beta. This new site has
replaced http://www.arcgisonline.com and includes a number of new features and improvements that we invite you to explore.

At the ArcGIS.com site, you can browse featured ArcGIS Online content such as maps and applications published by ESRI and the ArcGIS community, and add comments and ratings. You can upload and share your own items, either with specific groups that you created or are a member of, or you can share your items publicly. Use the newly designed Web Mapping application
to quickly create online mashups that you can also share with others.

ArcGIS Explorer Online can also be started from ArcGIS.com. You may already be familiar with the ArcGIS Explorer desktop application; ArcGIS Explorer Online is similar in appearance to the desktop version of ArcGIS Explorer, and has some of the same capabilities, but it’s a lighter weight version that works in a browser, and is built using Microsoft Silverlight. It’s tightly integrated with ArcGIS Online, and you can directly access basemaps and other content to create, save, and share your ArcGIS Explorer maps which can include presentations and more.

If you have uploaded items and created groups through http://www.arcgisonline.com, you will now be able to access your content at http://www.arcgis.com. Simply sign-in with your existing ESRI Global Account login and you will find everything you contributed under My Content and Groups.

If you have questions, please contact us in the ArcGIS Online forums.

    Can’t upload any other data to group to share?
