The feedback so far
Many users have been pleased with the new streamlined UI along with the fresh “Windows 8 “ look of the new Outlook.com email service. In general the interface has been met with a good reception.
The additional functionality of SkyDrive and upcoming Skype calls has also been greeted with a positive response however many are noting that this is not an entirely new feature as Google have been incorporating their Google Drive platform with their Gmail service for quite a while.
The king is dead. Long live the King!
