I have just discovered a resource that I never knew existed. I'm certain that it has been available for some time now but I just found it a couple of days ago. I'm talking about Google Sites. You can make simple websites for free. Admittedly not as full featured as something you might put together yourself using Dreamweaver....or even Facebook but I can see a multitude of uses for it. If you don't have access to a website design program at your school, or even web space for that matter this is an easy thing to accomplish. I spoke with the tech director for our school about my discovery and he said he uses Google Sites often when he gives presentations. No muss no fuss he just launches it and brings up his information where ever he is. Coupling this resource with Google Docs, I think, can be very timesaving.

Brad-
I used googlesites quite a bit. Recently, I have been using weebly. It seemed to give me just a bit more in design and function. It has a pretty cheap upgrade "package" as well. my classroom site is mrspridgeon.weebly.com. Please let me know how you like googlesites. I know that they recently did some upgrades as well.

I used Google Sites all last year before I switched to Blackboard. Quick and easy place to post class information. For those that do not know Google sites is easy as it gets. If you can use Word, you can use Google sites.
