New .Mac webmail is live
You may remember Apple gave us a sneak peak at the new .Mac webmail a couple of weeks ago… well, it just went live a few minutes ago. If you have a .Mac account you should be able to login online to see the changes.
I’ve only just started playing with it, but it does look like it has some really nice new features. It includes a revamped version of the online address book too.
UPDATE: The new compose window is awesome! It works just like Mail’s compose window… you can start typing in the name and options are presented from your address book in a drop-down. The spellchecker is great too. One of the really nice new features is the “Quick Reply”… it’s a small button to the right of each email that brings up a quick text dialog for replying without loading any new pages. The button is hidden until you roll over it. Don’t forget to go into your prefs to turn on and off some of the new features.

[...] Currently I keep my Macs in sync via .Mac, but that doesn’t do me much good if I want to access my calendar from another machine. iCal does allow you to export your calendars to the web, but they are read only… you can’t make changes online. To me, that makes that feature almost useless. I really hope Apple is paying attention to this, and they are planning to do to iCal, what they recently did to .Mac mail… and give us a full featured online iCal equivalent. [...]
[...] .Mac We’ll probably see updates to .Mac. I think they’re going to do to iCal what they did for Mail… make a complete online version of iCal, so you can truly access (and edit) your calendar from anywhere. I think a storage bump is in the cards too. We may see some specific features for the new iWeb as well. [...]
