Hanmail Express revealed Ajax-based rich applications such as Outlook Express in Webappscon. Hanmail is Daum’s web mail service launched in 1997 against Hotmail of MSN. Now most of Korean over 95% have its account and a number of total account is over 54 millions in 2007 and has over 70% market share even though Naver has invaded this market with its weapon of search power.

Anyway rich interface is not new one because Google, Yahoo! and MSN already showed Ajax based mail services. But, it’s first time implementation in Korea. The most important thing is user experiences in Ajax based web applications. Hanmail team introduced the video of paper-based user test in prototype stage. It’s very funny.

Now closed beta was processed by opinion leaders in Hanmail including me. It’s very good and convenient functions, and you can watch some videos for them.
