Civil 3D Community

Autodesk has just revealed that a new website featuring Civil 3D and it's users will becoming live in the not so distant future. I would expect to see it after the holiday (wink).

The new website will be a Civil 3D Community. This site will feature all the resources that most of you frequent in a normal day. The nice thing is that you can now go to one location and get all the info you need. It will feature a login and password and allow for customization of the content you will see based on your profile.

Some of the content will feature Tips and Training, Content Sharing, links to blogs, discussion groups, and online resources. It will also feature a My Network section that will profile users. There will also be a section listing events coming to your area.

Have you ever tried to find that link to the webcast so you could see what was up and coming. Look no further there is a complete list of all webcasts and events right on your home page.

From the sounds of it, this site is basically ours to do with what we want.

I do believe this is going to be a great resource for all of us. There has been a site like this in the Manufacturing sector for a while now. My "nuts and bolts" guys tell me it was awesome to have a site where you could find whatever it was you were looking for.

I will posting a link when the site becomes live (tweet... tweet... next week).
