Google Sites

Other half talked about this a couple of days ago...so I decided to check it out in detail today. Google Sites is really a great for keeping track of information and also happenings. Google bought over wiki service Jotspot 2 years ago and has relaunched it in its present form.
Took a look at its offering and I can already think of so many things that we can do with it. For schools, societies can use it as to disseminate information. Members can update and stay tune to the latest everything. Teachers can use it to run a project where students can continually input their ideas and research. It can be used as a notice board too...School administration can use it to keep the teachers informed of the year's programme...time table ... the list goes on.

This is a screenshot from one of their examples....for families to stay in touch.Basically what the apps is offering is nothing very new...after all we have bulletin/forum boards, blogs, personal websites, etc....but this latest offering from Google makes it so easy to set up a website for most of the things that one would like to do. It is the simplicity that is amazing! On top of everything....it is free! Check it out.
