msn hotmail email


MSN Hotmail email.

Microsoft's Windows Live Hotmail or just Hotmail to most, has seen a number of improvements in recent memory. Most notably it got an updated look, and they made everything faster.

Now they are rolling out a number of new features, which if users aren't seeing yet, they will be very soon. New features include:

- More room for messages
- Ever-growing storage
- Info at your fingertips
- More social
- A new way to get Hotmail on your phone
- More Themes

They have removed the banner ad that normally sits at the top of the screen, and have moved it to the side giving you more room for your messages. This combined with the new themes give users an opportunity to view their mail in a more pleasing-to-the-eye manner.

The ever-growing storage feature gives users an automatic 5GB of storage to start out with, but unlike other mail services that offer you tons of space from the get to, Hotmail’s will now simply grow as you need it. So basically, you still have unlimited space, it's just not being wasted, because it's not there until you need it.

By "info at your fingertips," Microsoft means that you can easily add local maps and directions, movie times, etc. to messages with the simple click of a button.
