Awesome.. Hotmail has resorted to pop up ads...

[Jay87Z]

Time to get a new email address... http://www.3rdgen.org/ubb/mad.gif

[Matt84TA]

you're surprised? They have to make money somehow.

[GK]

Yup, I support them. You guys hear about NetZero charging when you go over 40 hours of useage. These companies can't keep offering all these free goods and services and think there banners are gonna pay for it. People rarely ever click on those "annoying ads."

P.S. Here's that NetZero link http://www.netzero.com/about_us/20001221nz_pro.html

Thing is though... Netzero would be worth paying $10 a month for if it did away with the banners and shit... their service is actually fairly good for a free one (since they've basically been at the free ISP for the longest anywho)

[Jay87Z]

Hotmail is owned by microsoft.

Microsoft is a freakin empire.

They can afford to have free email without pop up ads.

Its annoying that every email I read, I get to see a nice banner at the top. Yet they still do that pop up ads. Thats what bothers me. banners are fine.. pop ups are the root of all evil.

I've known about Hotmail with pop up ads for a long time. If this was the first time I had ever seen them, I'd take a bigger interest in it.

You asked why that V8 Fiero didn't raise an interest, I told you why it didn't interest me... I guess it offends you that V8 Fieros are nothing amazing to me, so you start playing these games.

Yeesh, grow up man.

No games... I just find that probably 1/2 of your replies come off as completely smart-assed... including the one that you made in my post. I just figured hey... if he can do it... why cant I? :) Nothing less, Nothing more. :)
