Finding email unity in your Google accounts
September 17, 2008
I know I’m not the only person to have pulled this trick, which is to use a non-Gmail account for Google applications. I am still wedded to my Yahoo! Mail account for email, and I’ve used that email for some of of my accounts on Google, especially the ones that were acquired by Google after I started an account there (like YouTube). On the other hand, I also have a GMail address (which generally collects dust, and spam from disuse) on my account as well. With so many online identities to keep track of, how do I get this all together so Google knows who I am in all Google applications?
It’s simple, really. Go to the My Account page, then click on “Edit” next to your name on the right. You can then specify Google to associate whatever email address you like with your account.
