How to Make a New MSN Account

MSN can be set as your homepage. If you sign up for a free MSN account, you can customize the site to fit your personal informational and entertainment needs. The page's format can be rearranged, new pages can be added, and the weather report will default to reflect the address on your MSN account. When signing up, you can also obtain a free Hotmail email account.
