Yahoo Mail Beta & Windows Live Beta !

Recommended Posts

Yahoo mail has come with a new interface (seems to be designed flash), the new interface is amazing, though still in beta phase, it is quite fast than the earlier one and a step ahead google (gmail) interface.

Its not Flash its a group of technologies together known as AJAX. Google uses the same technology for GMail.

In fact Microsoft has been using this technology in Outlook Web Access for years now. Why they didnt integrate it into Hotmail is a big mystery to me. Although they are now.

yup, its the magic of Ajax (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) in action at Yahoo! Mail Beta which is open by invitation only for @yahoo.com users. Signup at: http://whatsnew.mail.yahoo.com

Infact Microsoft is coming up with their AJAX based email interface too called Windows Live Mail. Its in beta as well, signup at Live ! They have other services coming soon as well

Read more about both here.

Mailnation also has implemented this. But they have the crappiest mail service in the world!

Even Rediffmail is now using AJAX!

Beta testers say the interface is defenitely better than Gmail !
