It’s a well-known fact that Microsoft is now working to move all users from Hotmail to Outlook.com, but it seems like the transition is now almost completed.

The company has finally removed the Hotmail link from the official Bing search engine page, replacing it with a link to Outlook.com, Microsoft’s key email platform that has been recently pushed out of beta.

According to a report by LiveSide.net, the change is now being rolled out to all users, so some of you may still be unable to see it for the time being.

Microsoft officially introduced the full version of Outlook.com approximately one month ago, while also announcing that all Hotmail users would be moved to its new email platform by summer.

Of course, some Hotmail members have been outraged with Microsoft’s decision to kill their favorite email service, but as far as the Redmond-based software giant is concerned, it’s Outlook.com or no Microsoft email at all.
