@live or @hotmail ?

Hey all,

I want to create new account in http://www.hotmail.com . you know there is difference between http://www.live.com register page and http://www.hotmail.com login page. in live.com i only can select @hotmail.com but in hotmail.com i can select hotmail and live for my email account. i want to know which extention (@live and @hotmail) is better for a personal account?


Thanks,
Alireza

 

Both are same, just the difference is of domain name, live.com and hotmail.com.

 

I think @msn.com is still available (could be wrong) witch is the same as these, but the shortest.

 

If I were you I would go for either live.com or msn.com. They both are shorter and easier to remember.

 

Since Live came out i've been using it.

 

i think live.com is more professional

 

I'd go with hotmail because it's more well known. If we're talking professional sounding you're not going to use a microsoft email. You'd go gmail or one on your own domain.

 

i prefer hotmail than Live.

 

yes , I agree with you

 

Yes, you can choose either live.com or hotmail.com. there is no difference but if would have to choose i will go with hotmail.com

 

I would go with @live.com as it looks more professional than @hotmail.com

It is shorter than hotmail too.

Also once you create it, you can go to hotmail.com and login with your @live.com account.

Another reason could be that the ID you want is already taken on hotmail.com. If that is the case, then again you would go with live.com

 

Both are good for use.

 

I am using live, it is really great too. try it out.

 

@hotmail.com is the best since it is good and i use it

 

i would not send business emails from hotmail, but i would from live

 

live is nicer in my opinion for me its easier and shorter for email addresses

 

Since Live came out i've been using it. Please try it.

 

Live for me

 

Live.com email id looks more better than hotmail.com mail id.

 

Hotmail is more recognised worldwide, we have hotmail.co.uk in the uk, and obviously hotmail.com for us etc, I would use hotmail, brand awareness!
