Dear all, or any,
Has anybody worked with both Wordprss and GoogleSites/groups? GS/GS is very simple and good for many purposes, but not clear what it's spam defenses are. I have used it only for private sites, for which it is pretty damned good. No knowledge of HTML required. NONE. Almost, but not quite, WYSIWYG. "filing cabinets" are good for storage of documents and you can integrate it with a google group, with a little ingenuity. Navigation bar is useful, so you can make any website appear as a page on a GS site. The wordprocessor is pretty good, allowing fonts, etc. It allows different levels of editing power for different pages. Word Press I have only started to use. It appears a bit more nerdy. No obvious . repeat . OBVIOUS way to get different fonts. You have to know codes, I think. It does have a registration system, which I guess would deal with the spam problem, but how do people get vetted for registration purposes? The situation I am in calls for a site highly visible to the general public but also a site which is serving to co-ordinate actions of a group of people working together. So, I suppose we need to have "Authorities" control the higher levels of the site and grant individuals the ability to create third tier pages and below and control access to those in any way they see fit. Anybody with experience with any or all of this stuff please share, on line or off line. Thanks, Nick Nicholas S.
