Hotmail or Notmail

<p>Is hot mail really free?</p>

<p>please exit this forum, that is seriously the dumbest question I have ever heard man. you might want to 'get with the times'</p>

<p>and yes.</p>

<p>I'm no computer know-how infact I'm simple when it comes to e-mail.....even I know it's free!</p>

<p>Look I'm sorry but I didn't know.I'm not computer savvy like some of you geeks and nerds.</p>

<p>LOL, it doesn't take a geek or a nerd to know that nick da man 08. Unless you live in a 3rd world country or are Amish, there's no excuse really to not know that in the 21st century. It's not that big of a deal though, so don't fret about it. :)</p>

<p>I seriously hadn't heard of hotmail until someone asked me about it the other day. i didn't even have email until I came to my current school and they provided it for us.I always thought email was a waste of the little pocket change I have. So can I take this thread off ?</p>

<p>hotmail does charge for "premium" accounts-extra storage space and other additions. </p>

<p>nick, you haven't HEARD of hotmail? wow man. get with the game lol!</p>

<p>Well i'm trying to catch up with the times but it doesn't seem to be going to well. Can I change my username</p>

<p>Don't feel too bad. It could be a very valid question--it seems everything has hidden costs these days, so it's worth it to be suspicious sometimes. Plus, in different places and social groups, different things are common knowledge. My sister thinks I'm an idiot because I don't even know which local radio station plays rap, but I think that she's out of it because she doesn't even know if Jane Eyre is a book or an author. It's all relative.</p>

<p>I have relatives in 3rd world countries. All of them know hotmail is free... in fact, they have hotmail accounts.</p>

<p>LOL!! nick da man 08 you are seriously livin' in the Dark Ages.</p>

<p>ever heard of "gmail?" Thats one of the most advanced email services, and yes its free :)</p>

<p>People... give him a break.</p>

<p>Personally, I use Yahoo mail, which is free also.</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>What is gmail? :-/</p>

<p>email service provided by google. You hafve to be invited to get an account. Of course I can invite anyone since I have the account. If you want gmail, just PM me.</p>

<p>Oh great!How different is it to hotmail?</p>

<p>i have hotmail, gmail and yahoo mail</p>

<p>the best is gmail, then yahoo mail, then hotmail. but all my friends use hotmail and a bit of them use gmail.. I have to empty out stuff from hotmail regularily and I havent empitied out yahoo mail in over a year and it's still going good.. (700 junk mails there haha.. but i don't think junk mail counts in yahoo)</p>

<p>I knew what hotmail was since I was like 9..
but dont worry nick.. we all have our 'moments'</p>

<p>Really, every email program is all similar....gmail just give you a huge storage and better spam control then Yahoo......</p>

<p>and what is more awesome than going oh yeah, my email is (insert incredibly short email id)@gmail.com</p>

<p>oh really, could you get me one, I hear they have 1 gig of storage.<br>
No, thats yahoo.
Oh, darn.
Gmail had 2 gigs.
2 gigs, omg omg omg, could you get me one? I'd love you forever.!
Since you put it that way, I guess I could fix you up an account. :)</p>

<p>*convo starting awesomeness provided free by the google empire</p>

<p>-no, those aren't delusions...they're deranged fantasies...that won't be so implausible after I'm through with the real world.</p>

<p>Gmail takes email and makes it sexy. Everyone should get gmail.</p>
