Nice.  The old wasn't bad, but this is better.

Backup now & backup often.

I wish they would prioritize Google results over Bing's. The Bing (and by extension, Duck Duck Go) results for things I often search are totally irrelevant.

Pretty nifty Hazelnut.  See also, DuckDuckHack.  :D  A duck with a respiratory ailment?

Wish they made an email site.  Yahoo is almost unmanageable nowadays. 

The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-)

Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

I've been using a free version of "FastMail" for a few years now. I got the free account when it was "OperaMail" but it reverted back to it's original owners last year and is  now independent of Opera ...

I've never had a single spam email and my free account is also free from advertising, which is one of their selling points. Apparently for people with free accounts there is no intention to ever delete them or charge for them.

 

Sadly I don't think you can get a free account any more although I'm not 100% sure of that, but if you want a basic web mail, spam and ad free, it's worth the small fee for a personal account.

 

I still use Yahoo and GMail (not as bad as Yahoo), but for my private friends and family email it's FastMail for sure.

 

Here's hoping it lasts as long as XP.   :)

 

 

 

EDIT:  I actually have the new DuckDuckGo homepage on my TV's web browser.

Thanks, Dennis.  Will look into FastMail.  :)
