I had been waiting impatiently to try Jotspot, the wiki application that was bought by Google, after which new registrations were closed. Now, it looks like they’ve finished integrating Jotspot into Google’s infrastructure, and the service has re-surfaced as Google Sites — available exclusively in Google Apps.

This is not your typical wiki application with its cryptic markup though. I gave it a quick try, found it extremely easy to use. Building a site is as simple as editing a document, and you can easily bring together all kinds of media including docs, videos, photos, calendars and attachments — in a single page.

The one question on my mind now is how Google Pages fits into all of this, especially as Pages is still a Google Labs experiment. Below is a screenshot of a demo site built with the new Google Sites service.
