I don't really use my Yahoo Mail account and would really like to see Microsoft come out a similar Flickr service so I could tie that to my hotmail account which I do use all the time.

What do you think ?

Answer: It's inevitable.

Competition is always a win-win situation. smile.gif

No. Please. I'm sick of the whole Windows Live initiative. It started off cool, then it just got unimaginative and poorly-designed.

Why not just use Flickr? WL, WLM, Hotmail is pants.

It might be nice if they did. Alternatives lead to competition, and competition leads to innovation.

Can't disagree with that, it's quite a mess. They really need to drop it or fade it deep in the backbone and just come up with names that sound appealing without all that trash.

I just like things all neat and together. Less log ons to remember the better.

I used Yahoo Mail before and it was ok but even my latest one which I don't use for email is spam city, whereas my Hotmail account is perfect, no junk mail, unknown senders that I'm expecting mail from do get put in my junk folder. Just works for me.
