For some time now Microsoft has been maintaining two email services at the very same time. First the established Hotmail email service and then the recently released Outlook.com email service. Hotmail users who were interested in the new service could migrate their accounts to Outlook.com. The decision was solely theirs and while millions of users moved to the new service, even more users did not migrate their accounts to Outlook.com. Microsoft today  announced that the company has finished migrating all Hotmail accounts and data from the email service over to Outlook.com. The numbers are impressive, as Microsoft migrated more than 150 petabytes of email in six weeks (a Petabyte or PB is 1000 Terabytes which itself is 1000 Gigabytes).  Back when Outlook was introduced as a preview in February 2013, it had about 60 million active user accounts. With Hotmail users finally being all moved over, Outlook.com is now home to more than 400 million active users according to Micros...

Hotmail seems like one of those relics of the early Internet, like AOL, that I’m always surprised to find out still exists. That’s my fault in Hotmail’s case, really, because despite its current lousiness (compared to Gmail, say), it’s still the biggest email client in the world. But Gmail’s better interface, features, and ease of use have led to a quickly growing userbase, and  Microsoft   had to act.   The new Hotmail   is the result, and it looks surprisingly excellent.
