The Arcanet is a publicly available network which fulfills many roles and is typically accessed from one's ego bracer. Initially the Arcanet was created as a repository for information on Nodd that the Council decided to make public, detailing various things - information on flora and fauna, the upcoming weather and events, and other similar topics. The service expanded over time to include other information, such as advertisements for shops or various games.

Most shops and services have a public arcanogram which are available for Arcanet users to find in a variety of methods. Commonly, passing by a store will manifest the location's arcanogram on a user's bracer, and a user searching for a given service are often directed to establishments nearby that can fulfill their desires. Arcanograms for shops tend to lead to a listing for basic information, and often these listings allow a user to purchase items or download free samples directly to a user's ego bracer.

Games on the Arcanet are also popular, whether competitive or solo. Nearly all require some amount of gloam to play, and in return offer winnings and prizes for a skilled player. Such games also offer a convenient opportunity to gamble away however much gloam a user is willing to risk.
