Google recently closed Google Pages for new signups because they shifted their focus to Google Sites, whatever the feck that is. It just so happens that I desperately need to host a page on GooglePages because I'm building a Google Maps API -enabled site for the upcoming Tel Aviv municipal elections. Now, the street map provider that Google uses in Israel apparently sold them a license that is valid only under Google-owned domains. When I embed the API in my website, I get a useless version of the map that doesn't contain any streets, only main highways. In order to get the good map the API script must be called from within a Google domain, and Pages is the only such place I am aware of that can host third party HTML.

So... if anyone has a Pages account and is feeling especially benevolent (and supports recycling, mass transit, bike lanes, and urban sustainability :D), will you let me use your account for the next month or so? I will embed the page in an IFRAME under a different domain so no one will see your username.

holy crap i forgot all about google pages... HA! I have some stuff on there from like a long time ago. thanks for reminding me about it.

Just use it, it's what you want.

You can borrow kyle902.googlepages.com if you'd like. PM me for the password.

Sites is uselss CM. Doesn't let you embed scripts or CSS or anything. It's more like a Wiki than anything else.

Thanks for the offer Kyle, PM on the way
