Getting started with Google Sites was not difficult at all. With a click of a button you can or you would have already created different type of pages and embedded documents, calendars, photos, videos and much more on your website.

Another pretty simple and user friendly feature is this App is the Built-in editing tools which allows you to make text and formatting changes. It also gives you several other options such as inviting people to edit or view your content with the option of changing access levels whenever required.

However what’s new this time around is that Google Sites now is in 38 Languages. With the count of languages increasing it would definitely be a lot easier for people around the world to build, host and share their own websites on Google Sites.

The Google sites will use the Browser settings to detect and display the preferred language among those supported. However you still have the option of overriding the browser language and setting your own language preference directly in Google Sites.

To override this setting you need to click on the “User Settings” on the My Sites page and change accordingly.

Mentioned below are the 38 languages that Google Sites now are supporting with this release: Bulgarian, Catalan, Chinese (Simplified), Chinese (Traditional), Croatian, Czech, Danish, Dutch, English, English (UK), Filipino, Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Latvian, Lithuanian, Norwegian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Portuguese (Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Thai, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese.

Other than the addition of the new languages, Google sites has also made some improvements to the existing services such as the movement of the toolbar to the top of the page so that there is clear demarcation between the site content and application functionality and the site settings have been shifted to this navigation bar.

Another feature added is to let the user or the owner informed on what changes you have made to the User Settings page.

I am sure there are many more to come but with these new added features it definitely makes life a lot easier.
