The NEW Google Sites - 2016 Tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsNat-3-D3s
Published on Aug 22, 2016
Learn how to use the new and much improved Google Sites service to easily create great-looking websites. The new Google Sites is not yet available to the general public, but you may be able to access it if you have a Google Apps for Education account from your school. Businesses may also have access to it through the Google Apps for Work option. This video shows you all the ins and outs of using the new Google Sites!
*!!!
Looks like Google Sites got re-vamped last November, that it’s free, and that it may even be workable for setting up a business (which is great, since it’s developing within the Google Ecosystem … re Google Neural Machine Translation, TensorFlow, Android) … and it’s simple …
BUT ...
Google Sites works with the two most recent desktop versions of the following browsers:
- Chrome
- Firefox
... and the business/rest of world is still much on Windows/Internet Explorer (possibly ~75%?), I would guess ...*!!!
And another limitation re World University and School, which plans to be in all countries' official and main languages ... and work in ALL browsers, where I think that almost all browsers have been designed to serve web pages ending in .htm and .html ... the limitation that Google Sites does NOT serve web pages that end with these .htm and .html suffixes anymore would lead to WUaS NOT using Google Sites ... see ...
Limitations[edit]
- No longer serves .html/.htm Web pages, like Google Pages did. All static HTML Web pages previously hosted on Google Pages can be migrated to Google Sites, but users later attempting to access them, as well as Portable Document Format (PDF) or other migrated files, must download those files in order to view them.

See, too, with possible relevance for WUaS publishing ...

WUaS will probably not go with Google Sites until it serves web pages with .htm and .html suffixes, for example, since ALL browsers read these, and WUaS seeks to be particularly accessible in all ~200 countries and in all 7,099 languages and especially online in Africa, for example.
But, on the other hand, it may be worth experimenting with after all ... (and .htm and .html web suffixes may eventually develop in Google Sites, and/or CC MIT OCW-centric WUaS students in the developing world, for example, may be able to easily get Chrome ... ) ... but probably, in terms of priorities and given its limitations, after the WUaS Corp next steps occur in the upcoming months.
*
Still in the thinking phase here, S ... re free universal CC MIT OCW-centric education in all countries' languages - and a bookstore - and which information technologies ... and whom to code this further ..... very nice to talk with you ...
