General Motors REPLY TO BILL GATES:

The Best of Mails: Gmail vs Yahoo vs Hotmail!

Sunday, July 1st, 2007

As far as the Internet statistics go Gmail, Yahoo Mail and Hotmail along with AOL mail, make up the vast majority of the 500 million or so webmail users around the world (see chart included in this post). Most of these users are still using the old, tedious, Ajax-free Yahoo Mail and Hotmail user interfaces, requiring entire page refresh for every click. The new applications, along with Gmail, offer a much richer experience, much like Outlook or Mac mail. When these webmail clients are performing well, their speed and ease of use is easily as good as a desktop client.
