How to: Sign onto multiple gmail accounts in one browser

I'm going to write about something useful today, something that may save your life.  And, yes by save your life I mean save you a few seconds if you fall into the demographic who this would even be useful to.

Hopefully this makes up for the time you wasted reading my introduction, and this sentence rationalizing it.

If you use multiple gmail accounts for whatever reason, normally you have to sign out of one to access the other one, or use a different browser window.  As of Thursday you can now access both at the same time.

1. Go here http://www.google.com/accounts
2. Click the edit link next to Multiple sign-in
3. Read and check the boxes
4. Log off of all your gmail accounts
5. Log onto gmail with your primary account.
6. Click on your email address
7. Select Sign on to new account.

Pretty useful, especially when you get occasionally important mail in your junk mail like I do.
