amitstg 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 (edited) 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.

anujit 0 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 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.

Arun 795 Report post Posted December 9, 2005 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
