The technology had been around for a while, but it took someone to coin up a concept and the name AJAX to using the JavaScript XMLHttpRequest object and a server side processor to develop rich web applications.

But the kicked is the labels too. I forgot to mention that. The labels are killer for me. Makes a huge difference. @Aqeel

1) I haven’t used Hotmail or Yahoo! in a while for e-mail (a while being 4+ years).

2) From [all] the sites I’ve seen, it hasn’t been providing the ability for Live.com and sometimes not Yahoo! either.

3) Yeah, space isn’t much of a feature anymore.

But the kicked is the labels too. I forgot to mention that. The labels are killer for me. Makes a huge difference.

Gmail Plus sounds great, didn't know about it, Thanks for the info. As far as your points are concerned. 1. Yahoo! Mail beta and Windows Live Mail beta are using AJAX too. (Gmail is still doing it better though.) 2. Now many sites allow you to import addresses from all Yahoo!, MSN and Gmail using their APIs, (e.g facebook, plaxo). 3. Also, Yahoo! and MSN have started giving huge amount of space too, Windows Live Mail has 2GB and Yahoo! is also 1GB or maybe 2GB not sure, which is enough for any individual, unless they want to store videos and huge files in thier inbox.
