I can't find anything on the site about this, but according to Scoble, HotMail is starting to charge money: "Oh, great, I just got an email from Hotmail that says 'We are writing to let you know that your account has exceeded its current 2.00MB account size limit. Here's what you can do: Purchase MSN Hotmail Extra Storage...upgrade to a 10MB Inbox for just $12.95* per year! Subscribe to this offer to get an extra 8MB added to your current 2MB Inbox; increasing your overall storage to five times what you have today.' Oh, yeah, I'm really gonna pay to store all my porn email and spam. Geesh. I guess this is a precursor to HailStorm services from Microsoft."
