Google announced that they have released an extended API for Google Sites. This is really exciting as it means that developers can integrate directly into a Google Sites website. Google gives the following examples as benefits:
The use cases are plentiful for businesses: - Update Google Sites from 3rd party applications – e.g. your sales team's Google Sites pages can update automatically when new leads are added to your CRM system.
- Migrate files and content from workspace applications like Microsoft SharePoint and Lotus Notes to Google Sites.
- Export Google Sites pages, edit them offline, and re-import the updated content.
- Export your sites, including every page revision, for backup.
- Easily monitor changes across your important internal and public sites, all from a single gadget.
- Push new content like changes to employee policies or a new corporate logo to any site on your domain, even sites created by individual employees
I think the biggest advance is going to be the development of gadgets that integrate directly into Google Sites. |
