The learning curve was less with page creator and the interface was more intuitive for me. Most teachers aren't programmers or even tech savvy so ease of use in creating exciting informative sites is essential. There are a few things about Sites that I like, but it has yet to win me over. Be cautious in putting to much stake in Sites. I've read about numerous classroom pages that were on Page Creator that were lost when it closed. In a few years any content on Sites could be lost too. I'm…

I prefer sites hands-down... my school has really started to develop a great network of sites. Why did you prefer page creator?

Thanks for posting,<br />
I missed this announcement... Google notebook has been a fantastic tool. I will add my name to the petition.<br />
On a side note... Evernote is great too; plus there's an iPhone app.

It only takes three steps. Seems like a good idea, since a petition might fall on deaf ears.

Google is doing nothing to win over educators. I was upset when they replaced Page Creator with Sites and now this! They need to get their act together or they'll loose any support from educators they may have had. Now every time I use a Google app for class I have to think about how Google could shut it down. I'll think twice about using any Google app now.

Too bad you didn't get a chance to try Notebook...really a fabulous educational application.<br />
In a quick search I was able to find these 4 alternatives, all of which seem to be quite good. They deserve attention.<br />
Evernote<br />
Clipmarks<br />
Snapbits<br />
Zoho Notebook<br />
<br />
Don't forget the petition!

This announcement did surprise me, as well as the closing of Jaiku (which I'm not sure ever really got running after it was purchased...).<br />
<br />
Is there another program that provides similar functionality? I never really used Notebook.
