Google Sites: JotSpot Takes a Giant Step Backwards


The once wonderful JotSpot Wiki web service has been reborn as Google Sites. And, it appears to have lost a very large set of features it once had. I just sent in a request to reactivate my old JotSpot account, so I won't try to list the features lost right now (JotSpot deactivates but does not delete sites not used in 30 days). But, I seem to recall that JotSpot had more than: Web page, Dashboard, Announcement, File cabinet, and List page types (which is the page types Google Sites has). I also seem to recall that my JotSpot site looked a lot nicer than Sites. But, that might just be my own bad memory. I sure hope there are more features that will be added to Google Sites in the near future.
