How to Log into Two Accounts at Once with Chrome’s Incognito Mode

How to Log into Two Accounts at Once with Chromes Incognito Mode

You’d already know Google Chrome’s incognito  mode is quite cool and less sophisticated than IE8’s InPrivate browsing and will be more then useful if you have multiple gmail or other accounts.

When you open a window in incognito mode (Ctrl+Shift+N), Chrome doesn’t saves your cookies like a standard session would, so you can easily log in to another Google account.

Chrome’s help center has more details about this feature. “Webpages that you open and files downloaded while you are incognito won’t be logged in your browsing and download histories; all new cookies are deleted after you close the incognito window. You can browse normally and in incognito mode at the same time by using separate windows.” Michael Jeffrey explains that “incognito mode is a window-level mode – all pages viewed within this window are not persisted to the user’s history, and incognito pages use a temporary cookie store that is blank at the start of the incognito session”.

Windows Updates Downloader downloads Windows Updates!

Downloading and installing your Windows Updates can be a real pain in the ass. But this free utility Windows Updates Downloader comes as a god sent gift who seriously keep reinstalling his Windows every now and then.

The software works in sync with Program Files Update Lists (ULs) which are also available in its official website. Once the list is loaded, you can grab any of Microsoft’s current updates as executable packages, easily slipstream or run by themselves on a system that needs it. It saves you endless hours of downloading those nagging updates, that will popup each time you reinstall your updates. The website hosts nine English Update lists for operating systems like Windows XP, Windows Vista and even Microsoft Office and Microsoft Exchange. Unfortunately the + signs seems to be not working, which is quite annoying as you have to go to the website for updated lists. Other then that a great application and a must have for system builders and tweakers.
