Thanks to Blessed from the forums for the heads up on this one.
Microsoft has updated its Windows Live Mail service to M9. New features include:
- Much faster loading and advanced Firefox compatibility (works fully in Firefox 2)
- The Classic Mode will be the default view from Hotmail users - brand new users won’t be taken to the fully AJAX’d page but to the Classic interface for “ease-of-use” purposes.
- A new Today page rolls out, including what would be on your Today page in Windows Live Messenger.
- Recent Updates now added as a tabbed page on the Today page allowing you to switch to what’s changed (blogs, contacts and newsletters etc.)
- Search bar at the top of the page has been updated and tweaked slightly for the other themes.
