Mail Just Got a Whole Lot Better
Name: Windows Live Mail Price: Free
Hotmail has been in need of an upgrade for years. It’s interface is slow, and it is overcrowded with features that nobody uses or can use. Thankfully, Microsoft has developed a new interface for Hotmail, to be called Windows Live Mail. It offers a brand new interface that is fast and reliable.
Windows Live Mail looks like an online, cut down version of Outlook Express, with features from Microsoft Outlook (like a calendar). How’s that for a summary? With WLM, you can drag emails and right-click them. It’s very simple, but it does lack a few useful elements. The main reason I used Hotmail was so that I could check my home emails from anywhere in the world. There are ways to go around this, however Hotmail was the best. Windows Live Mail is still in early stages and there is much room for improvement.
Because Windows Live Mail has not been developed to meet expectations, we will advise a rating as the service improves.
