If you have multiple Gmail accounts and you want to access them, how you do that? You access them one at a time. Now with the release of Google Chrome, your life is going to be much easier. Google Chrome allows you to access multiple Google accounts simultaneously.
The ‘incognito mode’ of the new browser allows you to surf secretly, the history is not saved and the cookies from the current session are no longer valid. Therefore, when you are in incognito mode, you can easily sign in to another Google account.
To go into the incognito mode, you just have to press Ctrl+Shift+N.

According to Google Chrome Help Center:
Webpages that you open and files downloaded while you are incognito won’t be logged in your browsing and download histories; all new cookies are deleted after you close the incognito window. You can browse normally and in incognito mode at the same time by using separate windows.
According to Michael Jeffrey:
Incognito mode is a window-level mode - all pages viewed within this window are not persisted to the user’s history, and incognito pages use a temporary cookie store that is blank at the start of the incognito session.
When you are out of incognito mode, all the cookies of the session are deleted which means that if you have to login again, you have to do it from scratch. This is not only valid for Gmail, but also for other email services as well but the only thing is that it is valid for only two accounts.
Although the browser is new, people are gradually using it and it might give others a tough time in the future.
This is a neat trick that I had started using myself. I don’t really need it for Gmail, but I manaage communities and events and sometimes have separate Ustream, Twitter and other accounts for these entities. Use Chrome in this way will be useful. I imagine it will also be useful for people who like to separate work and personal online activities.

Hi. I have a common concern let’s say. i have one email address and i want to access from work and home using microsoft outlook. i did try but email would not come to both-they come at the first computer that make the send &receive process. I did try to create another email account and both my accounts would communicate with eachother but that didn’t solve my problem too. Any idea? Thanks a lot
