imageGoogle has introduced Google Sites, an application for web site creation. Creating and editing a set of pages in a Google Site requires no knowledge of HTML or web design skills. 

People can start a new page with one click, according to Dave Girouard, vice president and general manager of enterprise, Google. Adding content is as easy as clicking the edit button and sharing is as simple as sending an invitation, she says. All content is instantly searchable, and Google Sites is accessible through any web browser.

Anyone inside an organization can begin using Google Sites by signing up for Google Apps communication and collaboration services through Team Edition. After verifying their business or school email address, people can instantly invite others to join, or easily identify people within their organization already using Google Apps.

Google Sites is based on JotSpot technology and available in the Team, Standard, Premier, and Education Editions of Google Apps. You can go here and sign up for Team Edition with a work or school email address. Existing Google Apps administrators can enable Google Sites immediately from the Google Apps control panel.
Don’t forget the Macsimum Easter Egg Hunt contest.
