Yahoo! Mail Beta - Faster on Your Desktop, Incl. Twitter

Yahoo! Mail Beta - Free Email ServiceLike Yahoo! Mail on mobile devices, Yahoo! Mail's latest beta effort for desktop browsers comes lavishly clad in dark magenta — and it comes fast. The interface operates swifter, too, though you may have to wait for the odd message and search result in particular to load. Search itself is more streamlined now and maybe a touch more helpful to boot with one-click filters to narrow results (to certain senders, times, attachment types or folders, for instance).
Other than that, Yahoo! Mail Beta adds Twitter to your connections' outlets you can choose to follow, and offers slick, integrated slideshow viewing for photos shared from Flickr and Picasa and for videos linked from YouTube or Flickr.
›› Yahoo! Mail is your ubiquitous email program on the web and mobile devices with unlimited storage, SMS texting, social networking and instant messaging to boot.


Happy Thanksgiving - Free IncrediMail Letter and E-Card

Happy Thanksgiving - Free IncrediMail Letter Download and E-CardYou'll need dental floss and your closet for a few weeks: suspended upside down from the hangers, roses and cornflowers — and marigolds maybe — will harden and dry — perfect for a decorative arrangement, in a pumpkin carved, say, for Thanksgiving.
Now, if you don't have pumpkin, empty closet and dental floss, you still have Thanksgiving — and you can send a flower arrangement, too:
›› A pumpkin can also be used this way. Happy Thanksgiving! (IncrediMail)


Gmail - Delete, and Open

Gmail (Google Mail) - Free Email ServiceJust, maybe, what you've been waiting for: delete or archive in Gmail, and see the next message immediately.
That's on the desktop; the iPhone interface offers other updates: a fixed toolbar and custom scrolling for the rest (the latter an acquired taste perhaps).
›› Gmail is the Google approach to email, chat and social networking. Practically unlimited free online storage allows you to collect all your messages, and Gmail's simple but very smart interface lets you find mail precisely and see it in context without effort.


How to Use Windows Live Hotmail Keyboard Shortcuts

The editorials (I and II); the numericals; the modals, the large group of the alphabeticals, the punctuationals and the functionals, of course, make up the periodic table of the keys.
In Windows Live Hotmail, it is not so much the functionals (F1 to F12) that command the action but the modals and alphabeticals; try F7, the good old friend, though:
›› Deleting mail, marking it as spam or starting a reply: all these actions and more can be commanded fast in Windows Live Hotmail using keyboard shortcuts.
