• My first websites were programmed using straight html coding practices.
• Mambo - Open source content management system
• Joomla - The Mambo project forked and I switched to Joomla (2006)
• DNN - I wanted to try ASPX pages so I moved my sites to Dot Net Nuke (2007-2010)
• Google Sites -  2008-

I get it...

Google put something together something that works for me... 

With Google...

• I do not have to worry about buying new Hard Drive space with an internet provider
• Google updates the 'Sites' framework so I do not have to worry about breaking sites when installing patches
• Google introduces me to the concepts of Gadgets (Gadgets can be used with more than just 'Sites') 
• Google has a suite of products that can work together with 'Sites' (Documents, Spreadsheets and Forms)

The more I learn about "The Google way" the more excited I get.

I am looking forward to completing my transition from DNN to Google Sites for my Internet projects.
