Here’s the lowdown on the New Google Sites: The Good, The Bad, and Nothing Ugly! As I mentioned in an earlier post, There’s a New Google Sites Coming, what is now being referred to as the “classic” Google Sites was long overdue for an update. I usually referred to Google Sites as an acquired taste because it was so antiquated and most users are turned off within the first few minutes of trying it. However, “classic,” sites was and is still a powerful tool for teachers and students. The new Sites is slick and beautiful, and very easy to use, BUT it is still missing some of the features that make the “classic” sites so powerful.
