On the other hand, tons of Google engineers look quite childish when they try to put together a mini social network and launched Wave or Buzz. At the end of the day is good, you Google can't have them all....and is clear that people that work in search development are nor the same as people that like other people and work in social networks development. Google buy Facebook you don;t have any other chance to get the LIKES of hundreds of million of people!!!

My domains all forward to files hosted in Page Creator.

But, no, you can't upload HTML files with Google Sites. With GPC it was much easier to make your pages look exactly the way you wanted with uploaded HTML files and CSS files (or CSS in HTML).

I don't find it simple to use at all. All I want is the ability to upload my pages :P But Page Creator forces me to create pages using their stupid editing tools which are clumsy to use and don't offer any control. I also don't need to use their design templates which don't make any sense for the type of web site i'm designing. Who needs templates anyway for web sites - it's not a powerpoint presentation for goodness sake!). While the ability to add html to the sites exists (albeit through a tiny little link on the bottom right which took me a while to spot) i find it unbelievable the way they've done it. Why can't i just add the html of the page and save the page? I tried adding a tag and it saved it under an tag. I mean comeon. And what's with the Ajax in the html editing text area? It takes forever to load on my browser. Why can't it just be a simple html form? And it's such an effort to make the tiniest changes to the site. If I wanted to add a news item on one of the pages for instance or even change a spelling error I'd have to through all the effort of logging in, editing the page and publishing it. Why can't I do it with a command to an ftp client or something? Ok - this concludes my rant :) Should probably mention that Google is great for everything else (just not this).

I'm very well aware of most of services offered by Google, But I didn't happen to know about this service other than from your blog. Google page creator is very useful for people layman in HTML coding. it's useful for me. Expecting to learn a lot from here. :) Hi Matt,
