HotMail upgrade may the hordes rejoice! No one seriously uses the spam ridden service no more do they? Most people I know started off on Hotmail way, way, way back before even M$ had stuck there c*ck in and have now moved onto decent pop3 mail accounts (Hotmail used to offer pop3 and apprantly still does if your account is old enough?) with there own web hosts/domains/servers etc. Hotmail is once again for people who just can't get there ISP's mail working with the move to web based mail services Hotmails no longer the only hole in the park, but now you can see sh*t in the window too behold the future! :)

We still call it HotMail because Windows Live just sounds real faggoty :

"Microsoft is refreshing its free e-mail service Hotmail in an attempt to give it an edge over rival offerings from Yahoo and Google.The update will mean documents sent via Hotmail can be viewed and edited via web versions of its Office software.Other changes are designed to improve security by filtering spam and spotting phishing attacks.Hotmail is the world's biggest e-mail provider but faces increased competition, particulary in the US.Figures from research firm Comscore show that Yahoo mail still dominates the free e-mail market in the US, with Microsoft in second place. Google's Gmail service is quickly adding to its market share."
