About

Hotmail, launched in 1996 by Sabeer Bhatia and Jack Smith, was one of the earliest web-based email services. Acquired by Microsoft in 1997, it became part of the company’s suite of online services. Hotmail allowed users to access their email accounts from any internet-connected device, pioneering the concept of webmail and enabling greater convenience and accessibility for email communication. Over time, Hotmail underwent several updates and rebranding efforts, eventually transitioning to Outlook.com in 2013.
