Logging in to multipile Gmail ID's on the same browser

Image representing Gmail as depicted in CrunchBaseDont we all have more than 1 Gmail Id ? I am sure most of us do. We are all comfortable with GMail and we are also comfortable with the fact that we can have an alternate Gmail id. So one would be an ID with our name in it and and other could be something which would interest the female you met on chat or mislead the cyber stalker on the prowl (you could add more reasons in the comment box below).  . For e.g an ID like MachoMan@gmail.com for males and sweetangel@gmail.com for females and also for 'not so macho' males. Now the tricky part is to maintain 2 ID's. If have to check mails from different gmail ids you have to individually login and logout of each ID.There is an easy way to do this.
Login to www.google.com/accounts
and click the edit the Multipile sign-in option which i have highlighted in the image above which will take you to a page like this.

Select the 'ON' check box and select all the options given below it and then click save. Go back to your gmail
Click the drop down arrow right next to your gmail address on the top of the page. You will get a clickable option of 'Sign into another account'. Which will take you to the normal Gmail login page. Enter in the Username and the Password of your other Gmail account. Click the drop down box again and you will notice that your default ID is also featured there. Click on the email ID's to switch between 2 email ID's.
You can add as many Gmail ID's you want.

Please check out the video to see a live demonstration of how to make it happen

Most interesting and amazing McDonald's Advertisements

A showcase of some of the most inspiring and thought provoking (for weight watchers) McDonald's advertisements   from across the world. 

A simple but smart creative catering to the young audience. The symbolic 'Rock On' hand gesture and the color combination of the French fries pack can even make the most Hard Core Rockers feel hungry and drool for more.




Beautiful photography and the picture speaking more than words. Promoting their 24/7 Drive Thru. The midnight ambiance and the car headlights drawing the Golden Arc on the Barren Road.




A Countryside image denoting the natural ingredient(Milk) and the freshness(Shaking the cow) of the milkshakes served at McDonald's.




Bus Stop made made to look like a Mcdonald's Counter. Commuters waiting for the Bus and people passing by this Bus Stop would frantically have to search for the next 'Real' McDonald's Counter to satiate their urge for  Burger and Fries.


Nowadays its not easy to fool kids and impossible when it comes to their favorite brand McDonald's. In this Ad a Mom's bluff is called when she tries to pass of a regular sandwich as a McDonald's Product

So what do i name my blog ?

Blogger (service)Image via WikipediaSo, i wanted my own blog, and its not like i don't have a blog already. I do have a blog which was updated ages back and when I meant ages feel free to date back to B.C. Its my official blog and I am always under a dilemma on what to post there as I have to maintain a certain decency(difficult) and have to sound intelligent(impossible). So the easiest thing to do was start an other blog where I could be myself and no one can trace the blog back to me and hunt me down and kill me.


Decision(impulsive) to start the blog was easy and so was setting up a blog on blogger but the difficult part was to christen the blog. I was happy and proud i had found a funky name for the blog and later realised that some 'other' pervert had already picked up the name. Now you would be wondering how do i know if he is a pervert ? Thats cause i checked out his blog it had a  black background with red text and all those pics of Kim Kardishian, Paris Hilton and Pamela Anderson doing unspeakable things ( though i could act it out with them). 


Things got easy after that as i just had to do a 100 odd combination and permutation of words. Half  of the names I checked could be termed incomprehensible in most  non English speaking countries of the world and the rest of the names were just plain weird, and all of them were taken. Patience led to frustration and frustration led to anger. I could feel the anti social animal in me trying to burst out and the latest trend is to screw a brand on the social networks.Blogger.com was gonna pay for not letting me have a good blog name ! 


Just then my alter ego (I call him Mr Fool) the good side which is just 5%, asked me why don't i go social instead of antisocial. I said what the heck Smarty pants let me give it 3 shots at being social. So i tried Social (the most sought after keyword) with no luck (logically) second try was 'Socialized' (I try doing that in real life with no luck and it was likewise with blogger). The last try before i wreck havoc on Blogger was 'Socialised' relying on the British (note the 's' instead of the 'z') to get me through with a blog name.


Rest is history, i got the power of a blog now ! with a misleading name. I changed my mind of wrecking havoc on Blogger.com and instead would be creating mayhem with my posts on hapless readers who would be visiting my blog. Are you one of them ? Run... Hide... because i am a blogger now
