Accessing Multiple Gmail accounts from the same browser window

I was wondering, it would be great if I am able to login into two of my gmail accounts at the same time from the same browser window. Historically, Google doesn’t allow you to login to multiple google accounts; if you try to login to another user account then Google will prompt you to log off the currently logged in account.

Now its made possible in gmail by the new feature called ‘Multiple Sign-in‘. To enable this feature you need to login into Google account.

Multiple Sign-in Feature

Multiple Sign-in Feature

Click the ‘Edit‘ link in the Muliple Sign-in, you will be forwarded to the page where you should click on ‘On‘ radio button and couple of ‘checkboxes’ and click ‘Save‘. Now, your account is enabled with multiple Sign-on feature.

Sign in to another account

To add another account, click on the Accounts menu at top right side of the Browser menu and select ‘Sign in to another account‘.After you login into another gmail account the Accounts menu will show you both the accounts.

To switch between accounts click the accounts menu and click the appropriate Google account.

Switch between accounts

Note:

  • As of now this feature is available only for Desktop browsers and not for Mobile browsers.
  • You can use this for the following Google products only :Code, Calendar, Gmail, Reader, Sites, Voice.

How to create an OpenID and use it ?

openid-logo

OpenID

Fed up with creating new accounts for multiple websites, here comes OpenID for the rescue. It allows you to use an existing account to sign in to multiple websites without ‘sign up’. OpenID replaces the common login process that uses a login name and password for every website.

An OpenID is in the form of a unique URL (e.g., http:\\me.yahoo.com\testid), which is authenticated by the user’s OpenID provider. Some of the websites who supports, allows and provides OpenID are Yahoo, Google, ZOHO, Microsoft, AOL, PayPal, Verisign. The OpenID doesn’t rely on a central authority to authenticate the user. The OpenID protocol leaves the type of authentication to the provider, the authentication forms may include passwords and biometrics.

Let us create a OpenID with Yahoo!

  1. Go to Yahoo OpenID website Yahoo! OpenID
  2. Get Started, login with your Yahoo ID

    Yahoo! OpenID

    Yahoo! OpenID

  3. Now Yahoo will display the OpenID URL (identifier) generated for you

    OpenID generated

  4. To create custom identifier click on ‘Show customization Options‘. Check for available identifiers, Yahoo recomends not to use mail id as part of the openID as it may expose our mail id. click on ‘Save My Customization‘.

    Custom OpenID

Let us check how to use the OpenID.

  1. Go to Live Journal, click on ‘Login with OpenID‘ in the login page to open the OpenID login page.livejournal-openid-login
  2. Enter your OpenID and click Login (I don’t have account in Live Journal)
  3. This will forward it to Yahoo, where you need to login with Yahoo ID
  4. Now you have logged into Live Journal using OpenID.

The major advantage of an OpenID is you need not create a new account for every website you visit, instead create an OpenID and use the same account to log into all websites you visit.
