Google’s Single Sign on Means More for Chrome
Posted on 15. Jul, 2010 by Daniel Cawrey in News
It’s been talked about for some time already that Google has been testing single sign-on, and this news item is gaining some heat, so here’s what the impact will really mean. More Chrome.
For some people (myself included) I have multiple Gmail accounts: a personal one, another for my site and a few others related to the Google Apps domains of people I work for. Having all this requires me to juggle multiple accounts, and sometimes Google gets a bit confused.
With Google fixing this, now I don’t have to worry as long as they maintain separation between my accounts, like the personal from work documents problem that I have witnessed. Sometimes I’ve seen documents stored in work accounts that are personal, and vice versa.
Overall, it’s a good thing, and meant for one reason: more users having only one browser that they use. Right now, some people use several in order to switch between accounts quickly, and my assumption is that Chrome OS is not going to let you have more than one browser installed since it IS the browser, right?
