Register Windows Live Mail Without Invite

There is a bug in the system that is allowing anybody with a hotmail account from the US and UK to sign up for Windows Live Free. Go to that link and follow the easy steps to sign up.

Windows live is Microsofts attempt to catch up with Google’s Gmail. It does bolster a ton of cool stuff for us email freaks. I don’t use my Hotmail account, I don’t think I’ve actually ever really used it. It was always full of spam and junk so I didn’t even open it. Only use for my hotmail account was messenger.

Some more features of Windows Live:
Reading Pane See a preview of each message (just like Microsoft Outlook), and cruise from e-mail to e-mail without reloading a new page each time. One click shows you a message’s full contents.

Info Bar The Info Bar is a new weapon to help you zap junk and “phishing” e-mail off the face of the earth. (“Phishing” is when someone is trying to fool you into giving up your personal info with an official-looking message).

Address AutoComplete Start typing a name and “pow!” up pops a list of possible recipients from your contact list. Click on the one you want and you’re done.

Expanded Storage Your Mail Beta inbox will have 2GB (2 gigabytes) of storage. That’s a lot. Enough for 1,000 photos of 2 MB (megabytes) each, for example.
