Orkut Applications

Google Sites, based on JotSpot wiki software, will be available any moment inside Google Apps - this new Google service lets you create and edit websites without learning HTML. The Google Sites home page is live already but not yet available from Google Apps dashboard.

Google Sites offers 10 GB of extra storage - you can add file attachments to web pages or embed rich content from other Google applications like YouTube videos, Google Docs, Presentations, iGoogle gadgets and Picasa Photo slideshows.

To use Google Sites, you must enable the “Next Generation” feature inside the Domain Settings tab of your Google Apps account and then open sites.google.com/a/mydomain.com

Websites created inside Google Sites can be private or you can publish them in the public domain so everyone else can edit your pages. And like other Wikis, Google Sites maintains a log of all changes made by users.Here are some sample Google Sites websites created by Google - Personal Homepage, Company Intranet or this Sports Club site from Google University .
