I'm hoping to upload a shapefile to arcgis online and create a map there that I can then embed in our website.  From reading about the new functionality in arcgis online it seems like this is possible, but I'm not entirely sure. If someone could set me straight and point me in the right direction that would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Erik

Yes, this is possible with a personal account to ArcGIS Online. As long as your shapefile has less than approximately 1000 features, you'll be ok. Sign up with your Esri Global Account or create one if you don't have one. Go to the map tab, and click Add>Layer from file. Browse to your shapefile and load it into the map. Save your map. Click the Share button and make it public (shared with everyone). Then click the Embed option and copy the embed code into your web page.

That should do it.
