How do you obtain the hotmail member directory? I was trying to email this person and accidentally discarded my draft. All i remember is the first word of the email addy and their first name.

I'm not aware of a Hotmail member directory. It would be a resource that spammers would use to send Hotmail accounts even more spam than they get already. Regardless, even if there were one, I'd also guess most people would opt-out, or use obfuscated information.

1. Yes, as mentioned in the article, do Google search.

Do a search in several different ways : variations of the persons last, first, middle names, state, country, etc. Today, search engines contain billions of records listed MySpace, forums, blogs, etc.

2. Here's another free people and email address search resources :

http://www.anywho.com
http://www.people.yahoo.com
http://www.whitepages.com

Find the person with military, college or professional affiliations :
http://www.militaryconnections.com - for military personnel
http://www.facebook.com - find college students.

or by high school

I recently found a long lost friend on Myspace, although they haven't logged into their account in quite some time. I was wondering if there was a way to find out which email address they used when logging into their Myspace account? That way I would be able to email them directly instead of trying to contact them with the Myspace account they never use.
Thanks,
Dahlia

Also worth noting are themed directories that people register with, such as linkedin.com (past co-workers) and classmates.com (former school friends) as well as individual alumni sites for the schools you attended. I located a couple of college friends through an online alumni directory run by the university I attended.

Additionally, sending out a call to friends you and this person may have had in common also helps. Considering the "six degrees of separation" theory. It's possible that someone you know has the contact info for the person you're seeking or they might know someone who does.
