In Firefox you can create multiple profiles. Each profile will have |
| 10 |
its own set of cookies, bookmarks, history, saved passwords, etc. To |
| 11 |
open 2 firefox windows with 2 different profiles at once, launch it |
| 12 |
with: |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
firefox -P -no-remote |
| 15 |
|

There are firefox add-ons such as cookieswap to maintain separate sets |
| 17 |
of cookies and sessions that you can toggle, instead of needing to |
| 18 |
logout and login you just swap cookies then open youtube or |
| 19 |
whatever... |

As mentioned already if you're using Google services, they support |
| 22 |
multiple sign-in on most of their sites now (recently added to |
| 23 |
Youtube), so you can easily switch between accounts. |

There is another Firefox addon called Yoono that claims to give you |
| 26 |
per-tab session profiles but I have not personally tried it. I don't |
| 27 |
like the way their website looks and the whole thing seems kind of |
| 28 |
Windoze-spammy-looking to me, but maybe I'm just overly paranoid. |
| 29 |
Maybe I'll try it in a VM with wireshark and see what it does. ;) |

On Symbian/Maemo/MeeGo phones there is a Qt/WebKit-based web browser |
| 32 |
called MobWebMail which is specifically designed for Gmail. It has |
| 33 |
multiple cookie sessions support built in, very handy to switch |
| 34 |
between accounts and never need to logout or login in the process. |
