What you guys reckon? Personally I like the edit office files directly in your inbox feature a lot.

I have a hotmail account because I signed for it many years ago, when it was the only real option. But since Gmail, my hotmail became the junk address, which I use for registering on web sites. I rarely open it.

But I will take a look at your links.

I can wait for them to restart charging for pop3 access.

Hotmail is currently my main e-mail. I've had an MSN account since I was a wee little lad and my mom got me my first e-mail address...

I like the idea about being able to edit office files in-browser. Sounds like they are going to do some integration with Hotmail and Office Live.

I have the opposite setup. My Gmail account is for spam and signing up for websites and I haven't opened it in a long time.

Gmail is okay, but I don't care for it much. I used it for a while when it first came out, but it just felt gimmicky. Google seemed to be trying to "reinvent" e-mail, but I've never had any problems with e-mail sites.

I don't use gmail cause all the good usernames are already taken. And I don't want a myname2428204580345@gmail.com or myname.lastname.iamageek13131@gmail.com. I don't want to apply a job with such an email address so I stick to my hotmail address. :)

Who told you about this? Or are you just trolling?
