    Today, I was trying to log into my hotmail account...
    I entered my password and then up came this bloody thing with a type the word you see,So, I then enter in the upper and lower case as is shown...It doesn't work and then another one comes up again I type it in and it still wont work...
    I then think have I put the correct password in? SO I press the 'Forgot your password' which as you would think, would ask you your security question......NO, it didn't...IT told me that it would send me an email to my hotmail account to help reset the password..................Sweet FNJ ....

    Because it's terrible, slow, and it's microsoft. And it's terrible.


    Did I mention, it's terrible?

    Gmail is way lighter, has far more features and is constantly updated with cool new stuff. Why anyone would be on hotmail of all things in 2010 is well beyond me. Why torture yourself?!

    Google only cares about advertising, just like the others.

    What is cool and new today with Gmail?

    Clearly advertising maniacs, what with their big flashy popups and sound ads... oh, wait. :confused:

    Not to mention they freely allow use of adblock plugins in Chrome. In fact, adblock plugins are posted on the official Chrome extensions website.

    And they have their browser available for open source.

    But CLEARLY, they're just like microsoft.. except they cater to their customers and don't force stuff down their throat.


    Plus:
    1) Multiple inboxes.
    2) Multiple account switching.
    3) Free phone calls to the US & Canada from anywhere in the world right in your browser.
    4) Priority inbox.
    5) Labs.

    Do I really need to go on?

    Gmail is the ugly sister of Hotmail.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,989 ✭✭✭youcancallmeal


    I use hotmail and I've never had any trouble with it. Having said that I wouldn't have any problem moving to gmail but I've been using hotmail for 10 years now and the effort involved in moving everything to gmail wouldn't be worth it.

    All I want is is send and receive emails, not check my multiple inboxes, then my priority inbox, then switch my account to check more inboxes, while calling someone in the US.

    All your emails get compiled into the mail "Inbox" with a label with the hotmail address!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,038 ✭✭✭jackiebaron


    I still use telex


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,439 ✭✭✭Skinfull


    I still use my original hotmail account from 1995! But only for crap that makes you sign up. I sign up using hotmail, get the approving email + link then allow it to be filled with spam. :D

    Gmail is for email, hotmail is for spam!

    You can set it up so it forwards everything in your hotmail inbox to your gmail inbox, and you can even set up an inbox in gmail just for your hotmail.

    Switch. You'll be better off.

    I actually don't know what sucks more gmail or hotmail


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,013 ✭✭✭SirLemonhead


    I still use hotmail after 10+ years. I've got a gmail account but never saw the appeal of moving over. I can't say I find hotmail slow or inconvenient to use at all..


  • Registered Users Posts: 230 ✭✭DHYNZY


    I have both! Hotmail was great back in the day!

    I use Gmail it is slow!
    Their browser Chrome is not open source, its based off their Chromium open source project with extra spyware included.

    Every browser that allows extensions has an adblock plugins so what?

    They are just like Microsoft in that they are interested in making profits for their shareholders. Google Buzz was forced into my gmail, also chat and other crap that slows it down.

    1) You really cant do that on hotmail or yahoo mail, its just folders?
    2) For the last 2 months or so, meh
    3) How?
    4) Its not that great, plus its based on their crap spam filter that keeps marking stuff as spam that's not spam
    5) More stuff to slow it down

    Competition is good.
