Well, i didn't know where to post this, so if its in the wrong place, sorry.
Google released a new beta this morning: Google Pages
It allows you to upload photos, and drag n drop items, a bunch of color schemes, and auto save and more.
However, i can't access any of it, the servers are very slow right now. I keep getting error messages saying that the page is locked by another user.
I'll post back as soon as i can make my own page.
But it looks like google is one step closer to world domination....

Cool. Nice find.
This looks like it could be fun.

As of right now (10:10 CST), Google is taking a waiting list request for this service. |

I figured they might do that, as soon as they got some people in.
That's why I threw up a junk test page right away.
(I hope I can get back in to edit it, later.)

What I find surprising is, I signed in, then it said they're no longer accepting applicants, blah blah. Then it asked me to input my email address. It should have that filled straight away, as why am I going to want to include a different email than the one already in my Google Account  It just seems like some pointless extra thing to do.

Cool. This looks like it could become very promising, especially now that Google has obtained a large registered user base with Gmail, Personalized Search and Google IG. At least it will give people a very nice alternative to Yahoo! Geocities (which I find horrible). I'm on the waiting list and will let you guys know what I think when I get in.
My problem: Google: Tie it all together! Why can't I get a page that ties together my Gmail, RSS (reader), Blogger, Page Creator, etc.? Why can't I see ALL of my Google services and their settings on one page. Sure, this is a start, but it looks like it was created in 30 seconds on Front Page and doesn't tie in all of my Google services.
Does anyone think or hope that Blogger will eventually become or the technology will be redone to become Google Page Creator? Google having two content creation systems (three if you count Google Base) can be very confusing for consumers.
...my $0.02. Randy

ive been in class all day, and just was able to make a page:
my page
its basic, and not too indepth, i may or may not add to it.
I do agree though, it needs to be all intergrated.
At least the gmail and google page thing. This way you can upload lots of things.
The google reader is annoying, i dont like it too much, but it does the job.
I dont use blogger, i have my own blog on my own server, same with my website, but the intergtration will probably come.
I can see in the near future certain users doing everything from google, and by the near future, i mean this time next year.

no problem.
i was actually wondering that too, cause id like to add some of my ads into it.
There is a way to edit html, so i dont see why one wouldnt be able to put the adsense code in.

Yes. If you read the whole thread you would have seen it.

It doesn't really offer webhosting though....I don't think it lets you upload your own files.

It most certainly does, I will brb with source... Edit: | Quote: | | The pages you create are hosted on Google servers and are available at http://yourgmailusername.googlepages.com for the world to see. |
SOURCE It's isn't anything over the top as of yet, but it is Google's foot in the door, beyond Blogger.

Yes they're hosted, but it doesn't let you host your own files I don't think. Would you call a website which let you create some pages and put them in a subdomain of the company, and not let you host your own files or domain a hosting company? It's pretty limited in hosting capabilities...it's a bit like calling Blogger hosting - the blog is hosted, but that's about it.
