If Microsoft bought Yahoo! What will happen to Mail?
Tuesday, May 06, 2008

Paul Glazowski came up the idea of what will happen if Microsoft and Yahoo! if they Microsoft winning the buyout, my opinion is that Microsoft will maintain the Yahoo! Mail and may be fully use this facility instead of Hotmail because people are likely to use Yahoo! Mail more than Hotmail. Yahoo! Mail is a superior facility that serves millions around the world, Microsoft might not want to get rid off so easy. Here I pick a quote from the article.

Taking a cue from Kara Swisher of All Things Digital, we’ll focus on two respective properties of Microsoft and Yahoo: their webmail services. Yahoo Mail and Windows Live Hotmail. The two biggest whales of the industry. No other contenders come close. Yahoo has an edge, at 256 million users, to Microsoft’s 255m, but they’re virtually at a dead heat. They’re equals, more or less. Gmail and AOL Mail trail at some 92m and 49m, respectively.
