Hotmail and Compuserve
A lot has changed since this page was originally written!
Compuserve is gone. No more Compuserve email.
Hotmail is still around but has now become part of Windows Live Mail which now allows you to download and get 'everything in one place'.
- Windows Live Hotmail Information about Hotmail, background, etc.
- Windows Live Mail download (The download from this siteshould not require a Live ID)
- Compuserve Information about Compuserve, history, etc.
- Email help AOL, MSN, etc.
- AOL Information about AOL, background, changes, etc
During the install/setup, be sure to uncheck any of the Live applications you don't want to install.
Change is happening all the time in the 'world wide web' and some of those changes make us 'wax nostalgic', which is the reason this page is still on my site.
One of my first email accounts was Compuserve and I had a Hotmail account as well. The Hotmail account was abandoned as it was eventually so spam laden as to be useless.
My Compuserve email got left behind as I changed my method of accessing the Internet.
Change just keeps happening and so we must must change as well. (No one says we have to like it!)
