New MSN Mail Beta Preview

Paul Thurott's SuperSite for Windows has a preview of Mircosoft's new webmail offering for Hotmail and MSN. They're calling it "Kahuna."

The new system apparently uses AJAX, which is good, but is still bloated with bandwidth wasting graphical ads, which, quite frankly, sucks goat ass.

There are some other trivial new "features" like drag-and-drop sorting and a streamlined interface that resembles the newest version of Outlook, but that's about it, really.

In the end, though, you're better off with Gmail, I think. But if you'd like to give this thing a whirl, click here to add your name to a beta test list.

And to The Girl: yes, you'll probably lose all of your mail again in the transition. Apparently Microsoft are just dicks about that.
