It’s been about a year since Google acquired Wiki/page creation/collaboration/calendar/etc site JotSpot. And for most of that year, there’s been a message at JotSpot.com saying that you can’t sign up for a new account because Google is still integrating the service.
Blogger Andrew Miller reports that Google may be preparing to launch some new JotSpot-based services starting next year. Miller attended a presentation with Google’s Scott Johnston, where Johnston outlined a bit of Google’s strategy for integrating JotSpot tools with Google Apps.
First up, Google will launch Google Sites, an expanded version of Google Page Creator. The service will let businesses set up intranets, manage packages, and build custom sites.
Google is also beefing up its on the web office suite and has plans to let users edit documents, spreadsheets and presentations while offline using Google Gears. There will also be offline support for Google Calendar and Gmail. Google also plans to integrate GrandCentral, another recent buy, with Google Apps.
