Selvom jeg de seneste par uger har brugt en del krudt på Gmail, så er det som om jeg har en tendens til altid at vende tilbage til Hotmail. i virkeligheden er det nok fordi jeg i bund og grund bedre kan lide Hotmail, men efter jeg er begyndt at bruge mail på mit webhotel kan jeg frit skifte imellem de to services. Jeg ved det godt, det giver ingen mening.
Hvorom alting er, så har Hotmail lige opdateret deres service, og der er kommet en hel del kick ass funktionaliteter som er ret lækre. Derudover ser det nu ud som om der kommer en dnu en opdatering af Hotmail, som indeholder endnu flere små fikse ting. Jeg har endnu ikke slev fået mine slibrige fingre i den nye version, men her er LiveSides oversigt:
- Emails that include a package tracking number will now light up in Hotmail thanks to ActiveViews, which automatically recognize the number and display the real time shipping status above the email. Track packages now also fully supports FedEX, just like the US Postal Service. For DHL and UPS a link to the shipper’s website will be inside the mail instead of full shipping details.
- Facebook chat will also available in Hotmail. Initially, this will be available in the US, UK, France, Brazil, Germany, and Russia, expanding to more regions over time.
- Over the summer, Hotmail became the first service to let you to send hundreds of large photos per email, up to 10 GB of photos per email, by sharing them as a new photo album on SkyDrive. Today, this option is only available in the US, but with this release, it is rolling out worldwide.
- Attachment size limit per email upped to 25MB.
- You can also view Dailymotion and Justin.tv videos directly inside your email (in addition to Hulu and YouTube).
- Creating folders inside folders made possible
Endvidere kommer Facebook chatintegration også til web messenger, hvilket er ret fedt.
