I was curious, so I ran some numbers on the free e-mail accounts people are using to sign up for the FeedLounge beta.

So far:

• Gmail: 44%
• Yahoo: 5%
• Hotmail: 2%

I was more than a little surprised to see Yahoo and Hotmail down so low.

This tells me that, at least among a certain segment of the web population, people will move to a tool they feel gives them a better user experience. We’re working extremely hard on the user experience for FeedLounge, so hopefully that bodes well for us. 🙂
