Access two Gmail accounts at once in the same browser


     Gmail accounts allows people to access only one account at a time per browser. You might either have to sign out of the first account and den sign in to second or use to different browsers for each account. 

How is this possible?
2) Sign into your first account. 
3) You will be able to see this page.
4) Click on Edit.
5) Tick mark everything and click on Save.
6) With this, you can sign in to two additional accounts from the new accounts menu in the upper right hand corner of Gmail, then easily toggle back and forth between them. 
 7) You can even open multiple Gmail tabs — one for each of your accounts if you wish.

NOTE: This is a feature for advanced users, and hence there are a few more things you need to watch out for:

1) Not all Google services support multiple account sign-in yet. For the services that don't support it (like Blogger and Picasa Web Albums), you'll be defaulted to the first account you signed in with during that browser session. So if you click a link from Gmail to Blogger, For example, you'll be logged into Blogger with the first account you signed in with, even if you clicked the link to Blogger from your second Gmail account.

2) We’re still working on making Gmail and Calendar work offline with multiple sign-in. If you rely on offline access, you probably don't want to enable this feature quite yet.

3) Multiple account sign-in only works on desktop browsers for now, so if you use Gmail on your phone's browser you won't see this option yet.
