MobileMe Mail Beta: Google Chrome need not apply

Safari 4 (Mac and PC), Firefox 3.6 (Mac and PC), and Internet Explorer 8 (PC) are fully supported.

via support.apple.com

Well, well, well, look whose browser is not invited to Apple's MobileMe Mail beta program.

Of course, there's no Opera, either.

A lot could be made of this, but it's probably nothing. It makes sense for Apple to focus the beta program on the latest IE and Firefox, as well as their own, browsers. But it'll be interesting to see if Chrome gets a shout when Mail is out of beta.

Apple's page about the new MobileMe Mail, now in beta.

Read about it at the above link.

I am, by far, most interested in the speed improvements. MobileMe Mail is slower than Yahoo! and Windows Live. Much slower. Embarrassingly so. Other features look nice, but if they don't get the performance right they'll never pull in any non-Mac users.

MySpace Launching Their Own Web Mail. Huh?

Media_httpthesmallwavewordpresscomfiles200907myspaceemailpng_wjnfdgnxlqacifo

This seems utterly ridiculous to me. MySpace is going to launch their own web-based email system. Apparently, using the social network's own messaging system is just not enough:
...this will give them their own addresses “@myspace.com”
MySpace has long had "vanity" spaces. Perhaps they believe their members love the MySpace brand so much they'll switch email addresses for it now. I have a hard time believing that. MySpace is losing ground to Facebook, is this just a futile bid to slow down defections?
