If you're like us and depend on more than one Google account to get through the day, the newest version Chrome is a godsend. Google's browser finally allows users to keep more than one Google account open within the same browser. 

Say, for example, both your work and your personal email accounts are through Gmail. To access the two of them simultaneously you would have to use two different browsers. At one point I was rocking with Chrome for work and Safari or Firefox for personal. Chrome 16, released on Wednesday, eliminates the need for that work around. Or any other work around your more tech-savvy friends tried to put you on to. 

The feature, which first appeared in a Chrome Beta release in November, is even more valuable for those who use a bevy of Google products like Calendar, Docs, and Reader. All you have to do is configure your multiple accounts within Chrome and then pick which browser window will correspond to which account. A "User" menu will let you choose which account to you would like to use. 

Here, we'll let Google tell it: 

None
