Back in February, Google unveiled Google Sites, a free service enabling users to whip together secure, team-friendly Web sites. Unfortunately, it was available only to Google Apps users. But as of yesterday, Google Sites is now available to everyone. Here’s an overview:

Similar to Google Docs, built-in editing tools allow for popular text and formatting changes to be made in a straightforward, WYSIWYG manner. Once your site is up and running, inviting people to edit or view your content is as simple as entering in their email address (of course, you can change access levels at any time).
