Google Sites

It is interesting to notice that as I began taking this course (kicking and screaming against technology) I also received a very involved calling in a ward that uses nothing but google docs. Hello crash course to technology! My bishop texts me when he needs things, it's hilarious to me. But also helpful. Yesterday I forgot about one of my weekly meetings (in my defense, I don't even remember being told about this one) and he was able to text me and remind me and I was there only about fifteen minutes late! Yay for texting! But as for google docs, bless them! They have saved my life! Our ward directory is on a google doc, our calling list is on a google doc, visiting teaching is on a google doc, and the list goes on.

I chose to use a google site for my class site because I'm so familiar with google. I think the google sites are a little more user friendly, but that's just an opinion. Most of the things I've done on my blog have taken some time and study to figure out (yes, I am aware that I sound pathetic) and I knew I wanted something a little easier than Blogger is for me. It was also very simple to add a google calendar to a google site and since I knew how to do a google calendar already my choice was pretty cut and dry. But just to make sure no one thinks I hate Blogger, I tried to do one on WordPress first and it was even more complicated to me. So yay for Blogger : ) I also wanted to try out a different site than what I'm using for my blog. We're supposed to be exploring different sites and options, right?
