New Look of Windows Live! Hotmail

October 29th, 2008 by Adnan Comments ( 9 )

While Checking my email in my Hotmail, when I logged in to my account I got the screen saying: “Your inbox has a slightly new look”.

It further explains the changes are as:

No big changes - more like a repainted room than a remodeled house. All your messages and contacts are still there. We’ve just made a few improvements to Hotmail based on feedback from customers like you.

Here’s what you’ll see:

A cleaner and more customizable look
Up to 70% faster access to your e-mail
Easier access to your Windows Live Hotmail contacts

Additional improvements are in the works in the coming months including even bigger storage space (we’ll automatically increase the capacity of your inbox as you need it) and the ability to send instant messages from your inbox.

I personally liked the cool new look of my Hotmail Inbox. Just wanted to tell you guys about this new look if you have not yet checked your Hotmail Inbox.

Update

“You spoke, Hotmail listened
Over the past year, many of you told us that you wanted a cleaner, faster Hotmail. We released the new Hotmail to meet those needs, and now we’re adding more improvements based on your feedback.

In this version, we’ve changed the way that scrolling works for users who have the reading pane turned off. It’ll look more like Classic Hotmail if your reading pane is off.

Even more improvements are coming soon—we’ll be moving the advertisement from the top of page to the side, adding more themes, increasing the number of messages on each page, and adding the ability to send instant messages from your inbox.

We appreciate all your feedback and want to thank you for using Windows Live Hotmail.”

I want the old look back too. It used to be a choice of classic and full. Now its combined and its very annoying. You can’t even open a new 2nd page when reading email. Although you can when you right click and click on page source then a MIME headers comes up which is so confusing.
