C.A.R. launches beta version of new car.org

C.A.R. today launched the beta version of the Association's completely redesigned and enhanced car.org Web site.  By clicking on the link on the current car.org home members may preview the beta version.  We invite you to get acquainted with the look and feel of the new site and provide us with feedback by clicking on the "contact us" link in the footer of each page.

The redesigned and interactive car.org will serve as a one-stop portal to Association and industry news, events, and services, as well as vital tools members need to be successful in today's challenging market.  The "official" launch is rescheduled for May 27.

As the Association's official Web site, the new car.org will showcase many essential online features, including intuitive navigation; customized content link capabilities; and sophisticated search functionality; as well as destinations familiar to current users including Legal, Economics, Member Center, Newsstand, and C.A.R. blogs, videos and podcasts.  The new car.org also will feature an enhanced registration system and personalized member profiles; a user-friendly calendar that will allow you to view C.A.R. meetings and industry events at a glance; section-specific search capabilities; and much more.  

Users (including members, local associations, nonmembers, and consumers) will be required to register in order to access the new car.org on or after May 27.   All C.A.R. members should remain on the lookout for an e-mail from the Association welcoming you to the new Web site, along with other crucial registration and required password and username information.  You will not be able to access any member benefits areas, including WINFoms^®, without registering.  Once you've registered, you'll be able to use the same newly created username and password to access other C.A.R. sites, including CALIFORNIA REALTOR® EXPO (www.realtorexpo.org), with more to come soon.
