ESRI has announced enhancements for ArcGIS Server in version 9.3. I will shortly summurize the most improtant ones of the new release:
ArcGIS 9.3 is expected to be available in the third quarter of 2008.
Interesting for Developers:
ArcGIS 9.3 will support Visual Studio 2008 in ArcGIS Desktop, ArcGIS Engine, and ArcGIS Server for customization and development. In addition, ArcGIS 9.3 will continue to support Visual Studio 2005. ArcGIS 9.3 will still have the Visual Basic (VB) 6 Software Developer Kit (SDK) for ArcGIS Engine and ArcGIS Desktop, but it will be the last release that will support VB 6. ArcGIS Server 9.3 will support .NET 3.5.
ArcGIS 9.3 will not support Visual C++ 6.0. In fact, ArcGIS 9.1 was the last release that supported it. However, if you want to do COM Visual C++ development at ArcGIS 9.2 and 9.3, ESRI will support that language via Visual Studio 2005 (not Visual Studio 6).
ArcGIS Server 9.3 will support the following operating systems:

To visual geographic content most of the people I know use Google Maps. But must if always e Google Maps? in my opinion NO! Currently there are great alternatives out there, where you can do a lot more than with Google Maps. Interesting projects comming from the open source community. I think the main problem (at least in my country) is that people simple don’t know much about these possibilities, therefore I’d like to provide some links:
On the Example page of OpenLayers a lot of differnt maps are shown, where you can get an idea what is possible and how it works.

The ORF (Austrian Broadcasting) has recently shown an documentation about Vexcel Imaging Graz, and their technology to make areal photographs and calculate altitude for designing 3D city models. Vexcel was aquired by Microsoft and their technology is used by Microsoft’s Virtual Earth Service. You can see the clip here, but unfortunately the language is German.
