I haven’t used Google Sites really, but I have watched my colleagues use it. I look around every now and then, to check out how folks are using it. It seems to be used a lot more for marketing and commercial purposes. The sites people are making there are usually not as engaging as those I am finding in Wetpaint. Google isn’t working as hard as Wetpaint at building a community of users. I did find a couple good examples of Google Sites that are education, use media, and use the interface well. So it is possible to do a nice site in Google Sites, it just seems to be not happening as much. I’m not sure if that is because Google Sites is harder to use or if it is because of the community or something else. The two sites I found that impressed me are:
