According to comScore figures, Hotmail from Microsoft was still the leading online email system as of June, with around 324 million users or about 36% of the global market.  However, they have been losing market share, primarily to Google's Gmail.  Hotmail was launched in 1996, and there hasn't been a lot of work done on it since then. "A lot has changed in the last eight years, and we think it's time for a fresh look at e-mail," Chris Jones, Microsoft's corporate vice-president of Windows Live wrote in a blogpost.
The Hotmail service has been renamed to Outlook, a name that will be very familiar to those in the corporate market.
