Window live hotmail plus
A blast from the past!
Windows Live Hotmail Plus was a premium subscription service offered by Microsoft for its Hotmail email service. It was launched in 2005 and was designed to provide additional features and benefits to Hotmail users who wanted more storage space, ad-free browsing, and other perks.
Here are some of the key features that were included with Windows Live Hotmail Plus:
- Ad-free browsing: With Hotmail Plus, you didn't have to see ads in your inbox or while browsing the web.
- Increased storage space: You got 2 GB of additional storage space, which was a significant amount at the time.
- Priority customer support: Hotmail Plus subscribers had access to priority customer support, which meant that their issues were addressed more quickly.
- Customizable email addresses: You could create custom email addresses using your Hotmail account, such as [yourname]@hotmail.com.
- Enhanced security features: Hotmail Plus included additional security features, such as two-factor authentication and virus scanning.
- Access to Windows Live services: As a Hotmail Plus subscriber, you got access to other Windows Live services, such as Windows Live Messenger and Windows Live SkyDrive.
Windows Live Hotmail Plus was discontinued in 2012, and its features were rolled into the standard Hotmail service. Today, Microsoft offers Outlook.com, which is a more modern and feature-rich email service that includes many of the same features that were available with Hotmail Plus.
