ESRI Launches ArcGIS Server Gallery

It's actually called the ArcGIS Server Live User Sites, but it's basically a gallery of site built using that technology. A quick trip through the first few revealed:

- Most look and perform well on Safari on a Mac
- Some are quite slow, while others are speedy
- They all look unique and customized for purpose (hooray!)
- They all look different and have a variety of widgets so you need to study each one to determine, for example, how to zoom in (boo)
- At lease one used Flex

One suggestion for ESRI: How about blurb for each as to why they chose ArcGIS Server. What exactly was it they needed to do that it enabled? Said another way, some of these sites' functions existed in the past without ArcGIS Server. What was the impetus to move to Server vs a simpler Web Mapping solution?
