At last count, there are over 2 million people learning and using SolidWorks on a regular basis. And that means there are a lot people writing, blogging, tweeting, and posting about SolidWorks, as well as creating videos and images. In fact, a large portion of that comes directly from us.<\/p>\n<p>But that also means that SolidWorks users are spending more time than ever interacting between community sites, blogs, forums and other services. From a SolidWorks perspective alone, we host a dozen blogs, a hugely popular forum, several Twitter accounts and Facebook pages, a massive YouTube channel, and so on. Wouldn\u2019t it be nice if you could find some of this stuff in a single place? We think so.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/my.solidworks.com\" target=\"_self\">My.SolidWorks<\/a> is intended to help pull some of the most popular content together into a single place. Our hope is that it lets customers connect with one another, discover, and share everything SolidWorks, in one seamless experience.\u00a0 It also gives you the ability to search for answers to questions across multiple platforms, and get results in a single view.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"asset-img-link\" style=\"display: inline;\" href=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017ee7b211ef970d.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d83451706569e2017ee7b211ef970d image-full\" title=\"Mysolidworks1\" alt=\"Mysolidworks1\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017ee7b211ef970d-800wi.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"asset-img-link\" style=\"display: inline;\" href=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017c360ed498970b.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d83451706569e2017c360ed498970b image-full\" title=\"Mysolidworks2\" alt=\"Mysolidworks2\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017c360ed498970b-800wi.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"asset-img-link\" style=\"display: inline;\" href=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017d403dd46d970c.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"asset  asset-image at-xid-6a00d83451706569e2017d403dd46d970c image-full\" title=\"Mysolidworks3\" alt=\"Mysolidworks3\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-assets.solidworks.com\/uploads\/sites\/2\/6a00d83451706569e2017d403dd46d970c-800wi.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My.SolidWorks is completely open and completely free.
