Google just launched their new Page Creator service today:

https://www.google.com/accounts/ServiceLogin?service=pages&continue=http%3A%2F%2Fpages.google.com%2F

It does not appear to support PHP or MySQL.

I had to put my email on the waiting list .__________.

Oh well, sounds like it's just a dumb WYSIWYG editor. I hate those~~

I'm not using it either really ;P

But it's always good to experiment with some of the latest offerings as far as page creators go. Gives you a better taste of what's out there.

it's said to support AJAX so it may be worth looking at to see what it can do.. I'm also on the waiting list..

I'm a little curious about how fast Google's handing out more accounts. Is this a day wait? Or a week wait? ;x

Google usually gives me things pretty quick though X3

Paul Put My Site On :DDDD And that template looks half decent. Better than Freewebs XD Maybe Google will start a revolution of decent free hosting for the webmastering challenged! XD

Ok~ I'll add your site ;P

Anyways, it is better than freewebs, even with only templates >.<"

no, all you need is a gmail account. enter your account without the @gmail.com and your password and voila! you're in! If anyone that doesn't have a gmail accout and wants to try it without waiting then pm me with ur email address and i'll send you an invite =)

Yeah, but when you get a 500 I believe it means there's too much users or whatnot. Bandwidth issues.

Lord Kokkei
February 27th, 2006, 02:55 AM
perhaps, but how is it gonna run if everybody that sign up late gets a 500?

What? You've got account already? Lucky...

I've been waiting for like 3 days now...

Edit: OMG... I've got an account. I never noticed it. I thought they would e-mailmeor something when I was accepted.
