Here is the simple nuts and bolts of Google Sites. Google sites will allow you to create a website and or a wiki. When starting out on Google sites you have a blank home page. From that point you can select what type of page you desire. you can have a webpage that you can organize your info and choose various widget to put in place. You also have the option of making an announcement page, which is similar to a blog. This will allow you to put informative information, as well as, various opinions and journals about life in general. Next you can use the file option to categorize uploads and downloads that you want people to look at. Last you have the option and the ability to create a list of reading assignment or instructions. This website or wiki can be access publicly or there is the ability to put parameters around who can view it. Wal-mart watch out Google is the new monopoly in town.
