Hotmail Celebrates its 10th Birthday

Guess what, Its Hotmail’s 10th birthday. It was founded by Sabeer Bhatia and Jack Smith in 1995, but it was commercially launched in 1996 and later acquired by Microsoft. Back then it was very popular, I still remember those days when I used a combination of Hotmail and Outlook Express for emails.

Hotmail has been extremely popular among the netcitizens from UK. Nearly 43% of UK use Hotmail Inboxes and one fifth of UK’s population has made friendship through Hotmail.

Currently I’m satisfied with GMail, but Hotmail still rules the segment with 1 billion emails reaching Hotmail inboxes daily and is internationally available in 17 different languages.

Happy Birthday Hotmail

  • Hotmail is great, if I ever want a free E-Mail I don't think of going anywhere else
  • Hotmail - Born from the hands of an indian , nurtured by Microsoft
  • :P I'm just too damn lazy to use a email client, clicking a button on msn works for me!
  • Afterlife(69): I share the same feeling towards Gmail... so I use Thunderbird to grab all mails
  • Hotmail was always my favorite email service, sure gmail has ajax and a huge inbox, but I just don't like the interface.
