Title: Google Sites
Post by: Lazybones on February 28, 2008, 07:14:35 PM
Today, we're excited to announce the introduction of Google Sites as part of Google Apps.

Google Sites makes creating a team web site as easy as editing a document. You can quickly gather a variety of information in one place -- including videos, calendars, presentations, attachments, and gadgets -- and easily share it for viewing or editing with a small group, your entire organization, or the world.

Yeah, I got an email today announcing it. I have it setup with tomasu.org, its interesting, but I don't see myself using it.

But I bet for a company or project of some sort it could be quite handy. Its almost wiki-ish in the way it works, but its wysiwyg, and you can setup permissions to users in your google apps user list.

I wonder if it could be used for groups ;) to plan .... meetings and resolve scheduling issues....

Seems like some groups in the forums have had some trouble with that here.
