The Empowering Aspect of Digital Portfolios

I have to go respond to student emails for another class, but I had to take a moment to reflect on my level of interest and sense of efficacy as I have just created my first Google-site based digital portfolio.   I have created digital portfolios before, but I am just amazed at the ease in which this one could be created.  The advances in technology in the last 10-15 years are astounding.  


I had to create my first portfolio as a webpage.  A webpage that I created -- using html and writing the code for the page as well as adding the content to the page.   It is so delightful that I no longer have to know the code in order to develop the text.  


I also find it so interesting that programs such as Google-sites is FREE.   I wonder how long this will remain to be so?
