Get a 250 MB Hotmail account in Two Steps

MSN India is upgrading the storage capacity of Hotmail users in India from 25 MB to 250 MB (megabytes) with 10 MB size limit for attachments. But Hotmail users will not get the promised 250 MB storage automatically.

Existing as well as new Hotmail users will get 25 MB immediately and only after four successive logins and 30 days, they will get the 250 MB. In the age of GMail which offers unlimited storage, Microsoft is playing a big risk by imposing conditions for a mere 250 MB of storage ? I am sure they are seeing a drop in new user sign-ups.

Hotmail members will receive an email stating that the free storage capacity of their Hotmail accounts has been increased. If you can't wait for 30 days, try this Hotmail hack to get 250 MB storage - Cheat your way to a 25MB Hotmail account

Accoding to Hotmail support, if you have a free Hotmail account and have less than 250 MB of storage space, it may be because of one of the following:

* Your account has not been open for more than 30 days.
* You have not signed into your account a total of four or more times.

Users from only the following countries are eligible for the 250 MB Inbox storage: Australia , Austria , Belgium, Brazil, United Kingdom , United States , Taiwan , Switzerland , Sweden , Spain , Singapore , Netherlands , Mexico , Korea , Japan , Italy , India , Hong Kong , Germany , France , Finland , Denmark and China

The MSN Hotmail Plus yearly subscription of $19.95 includes 2 Gigabytes of total MSN Hotmail account space, the ability to send larger attachments, no graphical ads, access to the MSN Hotmail mailbox via Microsoft Office Outlook or Outlook Express, exemption from the account expiration policy and 30 MB of MSN Groups storage.

How to Download Contacts from Facebook To Outlook Address Book

Facebook users are not too pleased with the "walled garden" approach of Facebook. The reason is simple - while you can easily import your Outlook address book and GMail contacts into Facebook, the reverse path is closed. There's no "official" way to export your Facebook friends email addresses or contact phone numbers out as a CSV file so that you can sync the contacts data with Outlook, GMail or your BlackBerry. Some third-party Facebook hacks like "Facebook Sync" (for Mac) and "Facebook Downloader" (for Windows) did allow you to download your Facebook friends' names, emails, mobile phone number and profile photo to the desktop but they were quickly removed for violation of Facebook Terms of Use. How to Download Contacts from Facebook There are still some options to take Friends data outside the walls of Facebook wall.

PhishTank Detects Phishing Websites by Digg Style Voting

OpenDNS, a free service that helps anyone surf the Internet faster with a simple DNS tweak , will announce PhishTank today. PhishTank is a free public database of phishing URLs where anyone can submit their phishes via email or through the website. The submissions are verified by the other community members who then vote for the suspected site. This is such a neat idea as sites can be categorized just based on user feedback without even having to manually verify each and every submission. PhishTank employs the "feedback loop" mechanism where users will be kept updated with the status' of the phish they submit either via email alerts or a personal RSS feed . Naturally, once the PhishTank databases grows, other sites can harness the data using open APIs which will remain free. OpenDNS would also use this data to improve their existing phishing detection algorithms which are already very impressive and efficient. PhishTank | PhishTank Blog [Thanks Allison] Related: Google
