Hotmail is one of the services that were initiated when the trend
for email services was catching up fast. The original service was
launched in 1996 by its two co-founders, but within a year, it was
acquired by the leading computer manufacturer, Microsoft. The bid it
made for this service was huge, given it was only a year the company was
launched, but Microsoft saw potential in it, and so went ahead with it.
It continued to add some of its own services to it too, and as a
result, Hotmail is today one of the leading email services in the world
with a user base of well over 350 million.
Hotmail email service
today offers you a lot of features that simply make your experience with
it enticing. Take a quick look at some of them:

of the better features of Hotmail, Active View saves you the hassle of

browser window, and if you want, you can even save them on the Windows
Live SkyDrive. By using SkyDrive, another Hotmail-specific feature you
can also share your documents of up to 50MB sizes each, totaling up to
25 GB, with other users for viewing or performing other tasks.
Conversation Threading: Now
you can check all emails that a part of a conversation as a single
email only. Simply click on one, and you would find all the past
correspondence in this conversation threaded below in it.
Then there are other features as well like Task Manager, Calendar, Messenger and more that will keep you glued to this service.
Hotmail Support
is an important feature itself that Hotmail emphasizes a lot on. Though
live help services are not available to free users, but Hotmail Help
and Support modules are already there on Hotmail website, which are
"self help" articles and include almost all common issues that one could
experience. If there is some issue that you feel is not listed, or if
there is one that you are not able to understand, you can also send
Hotmail an email regarding that.
If you want to stay with your
free account, and yet wish to obtain instant Hotmail Support services,
you could turn towards other Tech support companies as well, that work
independently of official Hotmail Support. These companies deliver
similar level of support as Hotmail, but they have a fee on their
services. This fee is quite affordable and would often cost you less
than having a paid Hotmail account.
You could run a review of
couple of these over the internet by comparing them to determine the
cheapest and most preferable option of them all.
