How to Use Two Google Accounts Simultaneously

Sometimes you might want to use two separate Google accounts without how to log out and login or switch between them given that doing so may interrupt other services in use (like Gmail, YouTube, Google Calendar, etc). I have a persona Gmail account as well as another Gmail account for the strata in which I live plus a separate Google account for the blog’s YouTube channel.

Things can get messy rather quickly.

Anyway, there are two solutions, to put it simply:

  1. Use multiple browsers (Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, etc) and use a different Google account in each,
  2. If you use Google Chrome, you can use one instance in standard mode with one account and another instance in incognito mode with a second account. Otherwise, Internet Explorer 9 or 10 will allow you to do the same thing with its “InPrivate Browsing” mode.

Unfortunately, the second option won’t work with Firefox as it forces all of your Firefox tabs and windows to close while you enter private browsing mode – this is no good if you want to use two account simultaneously.

My name is Boyd and I’m a Service Management Specialist with a knack for operational data gathering, transformation, analysis and reporting.

In 2012, I obtained my Masters of Science in Information Technology through the University of New South Wales @ The Australia Defence Force Academy (UNSW@ADFA).

I was also part of an online community known as the Panasonic Insider Crew in the capacity of “Insider Guru” for Panasonic Australia where I interacted with other tech enthusiasts and find out more about Panasonic's latest gadgets.

I love technology, gadgets, and the Internet and maintain a keen interest in these areas locally, nationally, and globally. I hope by sharing my views on these topics that people will receive an honest point of view from someone with a genuine interest in these topics.
