ArcGIS Server Manager Video at ESRI

For those who have not seen the new management tools available at 9.2, ESRI has posted a video demonstrating the new web interface. Forget what you know about managing ArcGIS Server and ArcIMS as the new tools make it SO much easier to work with ESRI’s server product.

I still don’t understand why ESRI posts WMV video and has not gotten on the Flash video bandwagon though. Links to WMV is so 1999 guys. (actually to be fair, ESRI does have Flash video available, but consistency on their webpages just isn’t there)

    I can’t agree more. You would think with the progressive world of technology and having that constant edge, rolling out the new Arc would arrive with outdated technology!

    ‘rolling out the new Arc would arrive with outdated technology!’

    Sounds like a perfect fit to me!

    Can’t say I agree at all. I prefer to watch video in an application that gives me a bit more control on filtering, display, and such. Burying it in flash makes it that much harder to get the real URL into a real video plaer.

    My company blocks WMV so I can’t watch them. Many companies do this. I have no problem with a WMV option also, but default should be Flash.
