Microsoft to bring Hotmail onto the desktop
Microsoft has started beta testing software that will take its Web e-mail onto the desktop.
A fresher, faster Hotmail
Some 280 million Hotmail users are getting a brand-new in-box. If you're already using Hotmail, a green button will invite you to try the new service when you log in, while the beta tag disappears for testers
Hotmail's New Address
An overhaul of the long-neglected Web e-mail is the cornerstone of Microsoft's plan to win fans to its Windows Live services.
Windows Live offers Microsoft a quicker turnaround
Although it has taken Microsoft five years to develop the next version of Windows, the software maker seems to crank out a new Windows Live service every five minutes.
