look at Google Reader, a service to read RSS feeds. Paul Taylor determined that Google
has not made Google Reader available to Apps for Education users.
 Google Sites - The CTAB Education Committee asked that the Appl/Equip Committee
look at Google Sites, a service for web page creation.
o The Committee has asked CTS to first evaluate the technical issues and determine
if delivering Sites is feasible and/or what are the concerns.
o There were major concerns by both CTS and Committee last Spring.
 SmartSheet – is a paid service (purchased through GoogleApps Marketplace) that
provides Project Management tools. It was described as a “super-lite version of MS
Project”. This is currently available to the campus community.
