You might not have multiple twitter accounts, that’s understandable, but I am sure you have many gmail accounts? Well, I do… I have couple of gmail accounts, usually different accounts for different projects.

So, if you are like me, have to check different gmail accounts all the time, you know that logging out from one account and logging in to another account can be a hassle. Especially if you check your accounts frequently.

To solve this problem, you can use Gmail Manager add-on for Firefox. As you can see from the screenshot, in order to switch from one gmail account to another, you just have to right click on the gmail icon in the firefox taskbar, and choose your particular account to login. That’s it, you will automatically will be logged to your chosen gmail account.

This plugin allows you to use secure connection for your accounts. Also, since it has the option to store passwords, it’s highly recommended that you do not use this at the public PCs where other people can access your emails.

    Hi Ades thanks for the heads up, fire fox is a good bit of kit, I like all the add ons you can have and this one for gmail is perfect. But like you say need to be careful using on public PC’s.

    It’s great to know that there is now an easier way to manage multiple Gmail accounts right from the browser.

    That makes it all the more merrier with Firefox.

    Another great program is Digsby. You can use it for social media sites, instant messaging and email accounts

    That’s a pretty neat tool! I have two gmail accounts, but I tie all my other emails to feed into my gmail so I am on it all the time. I’m definitely going to have a look at that!

    I don’t have multiple gmail accounts so won’t need to do so, but I will tell my friend about it.

    Now that does fill a need - it is so frustrating having to switch over. I have tried using different browsers, a account to each, but this looks to be a much easier solution. Thanks.
