I recently worked with the ESRI web folks to put together the Make a map application - http://tr.im/APlT.  This was a fun application to build, and I hope you find it fun to use.

This is a prototype application intended to highlight the ArcGIS API for Flex, the great demographic data available from ArcGIS Onilne, as well as the "Map Sandwich" web map layering technique proposed by the ESRI Mapping Center Team - http://tr.im/APgF.

This forum thread is intended to allow for discussions of how this application was built, and to allow for community support.  Also, since the application is in beta at the time of this thread creation, feel free to contribute your suggestions for improvement!  How the application evolves from here is largely up to you, so let us know what you think.

The most interesting technical aspect of this application is the extensive communication between the HTML host page and the embedded ArcGIS API for Flex application.  A working sample that was used to build this application will soon be available in the web mapping API sample gallery.  Stay tuned!  I\'ll be sure to update the thread as soon as it\'s available.

enjoy,

Jeff Archer

We have just posted the training seminar on the Silverlight API. This is a free training seminar so definitely check it out. It covers everything you need to get started on using the Silverlight API. You can also download the samples used in this presentation to view some of the maps, components, and sample services offered by ESRI. If anyone should have any questions about these samples feel free to post a question to this thread.

The resource center community code galleries are a great way to gather ideas for application functionality and sample code. Here’s a Silverlight API sample I’ve used quite a bit to create client side heat maps.

If you would like to jumpstart your learning on the Web Mapping APIs here are some free live training seminars. I just gave the Silverlight one on August 27 so it will be published in two weeks. I will post it as soon as it is available.
