At Gnomedex this past weekend, I got a chance to talk with Steve Kafka, Program Manager for Windows Live Mail. After being inside the conference most of the day, we went outside the Bell Harbor Convention Center into a glorious Seattle day to talk a little about Windows Live Mail. OK there’s a ferryboat horn, two seaplanes, some cars, and some tourists in the background. Just imagine you’re there and enjoy!

00:00 What makes Live Mail different? From Hotmail? From GMail and Yahoo?

01:54 How is the scale that Microsoft employs important to users?

03:24 When will Windows Live Mail be up to speed in terms of performance?

04:50 Will Vista makes the Windows Live Mail experience better?
