We wanted to make the site relevant and easy for admins to use, and we also wanted to use Google Apps as fully as we could. So we used Google Sites, of course, and integrated the Google products that most admins already use, like Google Maps, Moderator, and Forms. A few highlights:
- The Admin community map – allows admins to easily see where their fellow community members are located; also highlights further information with a "click" on the marker.
- "Share your perspective " – uses Google Moderator to let admins easily add their own comments to posted topics, or vote on comments added by others. We've set this up to feature four topics at a time, so there's always something to talk about.
- "Stay Current " – the latest product information and posts to the Admin Help forum, so that Admins can see what's being discussed in Support
The Google Apps team hopes that this community adds value for admins, and we hope you'll take a look today.
