Hotmail has recently rolled out some new features in the hotmail interface like active view which allows to view photos, video attached in mails as attachment in the mail itself without going to the third party sites like youtube or flickr view the content, many hotmail users really liked this feature as it makes it more simple and easy for them to view the content in mail in the mail interface itself.
