It's been dormant a long time, but it appears TheArnoldFans now has real "competition" in the world of Arnold websites again! Schwarzenegger.com has relaunched with an all new look and cool features to keep us abreast of Arnold's projects, and for Arnold to communicate directly with his fans! We've been given a sneak peek, so here's what you can expect!
Arnold's new site has a modern design that's very clean and easy to get around. He wisely avoided lots of unnecessary flash animations and just concentrated on the content and navigation. The main news sections are Film, Fitness, and Issues. The first two are self-explanatory, and Issues seems to be a catch-all for important things Arnold wants to talk about, from politics to his favorite causes to the environment. You can click on each section to see only stories related to it, or just go to the home page for the latest posts in all categories. There are also links for all of his social media pages and his causes on every page, along with a couple of his most recent tweets. Finally, there are two special sections: Arnold TV and Total Recall. Arnold TV shows Arnold's YouTube videos in an embedded player, and you can also sort them by category, comment on, like, or tweet about them. Total Recall is of course, about his autobiography that comes out this fall, which he's still asking fans to submit back cover pictures for!
Oh, and by the way, the beloved Ask Arnold feature from his old site is back! It resides on the Fitness home page, a box that shows fans' tweeted questions and gives a link that allows you to easily tweet your own to Arnold and maybe get it answered immediately!
So that's the new schwarzenegger.com! Are we intimidated? Nah, they have a long way to go before they have the massive content that we have! But it's nice to centralize Arnold's online presence again, and we hope to see lots of good things there to link to in the future! Competition keeps us hungry!
