Hotmail

Yahoo Hotmail

Yahoo Hotmail… well, Hotmail really comes from MSN, not Yahoo! Take a look at the new Hotmail features:

The name Hotmail was created by adding the word “mail” to HTML (Hyper Text Markup Language), which was the main encoding computer language at the time.  One more reason the name was selected to become called Hotmail was that it ended in “mail” and also happened to match in nicely with HTML.  For this reason, its initial name was selected to be HoTMaiL.

It was released using the support of Draper Fisher Jurvetson, a venture capital corporation.  It became very popular quickly… so much it had 8.5 million users when it was sold to Microsoft in December of 1997.  It sold for 400 million dollars and was renamed to MSN Hotmail and then later was renamed Windows Live Hotmail, as it is known now.
