Sites is the easiest way to make information accessible to people who need
quick, up-to-date access. People can work together on a Site to add file
attachments, information from other Google applications (like Google Docs,
Google Calendar, YouTube and Picasa), and new free-form content. Creating a
site together is as easy as editing a document, and you always control who
has access, whether it's just yourself, your team, or your whole
organization. You can even publish Sites to the world. The Google Sites web
application is accessible from any internet connected computer.
