Email has changed a lot over the last five years. These days, you're getting more email than ever - email that often requires you to leave your inbox to complete an action; you're getting bigger and bigger attachments; and you're using smart phones where you want to sync not only your email, but your contacts and calendar, too.
In this post, Microsoft talks about how they've built the new Hotmail, slated to launch this summer worldwide, to address the needs of the modern inbox.
The changes introduced are:
- Take back your inbox. The re-designed Hotmail will help you quickly get to the important messages and get rid of the mail you don't want.
- Get more done with the mail you receive. Do more without leaving your inbox, so that you don't have to open a bunch of browser windows just to get simple things done.
- Share over email. Stop hassling with attachment size limits - whether you're sending hundreds of large photos or massive documents. View, edit, and share Microsoft Office documents even if you or the people you're sharing with don't have Office installed on their computers - PC or Mac.
- Connect from your phone. Sync your email, calendar, and contacts on your mobile devices - whether you're using a smart phone like the forthcoming Windows Phone 7, or the iPhone, or a phone that just has a simple browser.
