Just like a rock weathers in the wind, snow, and water. |
still the most used worldwide though.

Wrong. Way wrong. As of the last reported record of Hotmail, they had 369 million active accounts, and were in decline. Gmail currently has 425 million active, and are still experiencing growth.

Usually when you provide a counter argument you post a link supporting your claim...
Like this - http://www.usatoday.com/tech/columnist/edwardbaig/story/2012-07-31/outlook-email/56616322/1
"Research firm comScore says Hotmail has 41 million monthly unique visitors; AOL, 24 million. That makes them the No. 3 and No. 4 e-mail providers in the U.S., behind Yahoo Mail, with 84 million unique visitors, and Gmail, 68 million. Worldwide, more than 324 million people still use Hotmail monthly, making it the top provider globally"

Okay, so your source just backed my claim up even more.

Thanks for that.

Its one thing to paste links and another to actually read them and comprehend what they are saying.
What your link is saying is that Gmail has most user accounts but there is nothing about most usage(active accounts). You know how PSN has more user accounts than Xbox live, but Xbox live sees much more usage? Well this is the same scenario. Just because everyone is forced to make a Gmail account when they get an android device to use Google services doesn't mean they actually use it.
Comscore (source in my link) is the biggest internet traffic measuring company in the world and according to them Hotmail has more traffic and user impressions wordwide than any other email service. Meaning it is the most used...
