When signing up for a new Hotmail account you have the choice between four different domains for your new email address. You new Hotmail address can be:
@hotmail.com
@live.com
@outlook.com
@msn.com
With Hotmail being such a popular service this is very useful; Your nickname under @hotmail.com may be taken but you can probably get it under one of the newer domains (live.com or outlook.com). That's how I got bigdan@live.com.
Couple this with Hotmail's Aliases where you can add additional addresses that come right to your Hotmail inbox and you can secure all the nickname names you prefer.
@hotmail.com
@live.com
@outlook.com
@msn.com
