An easy way to access both at the same time, without having to log out of one and then into the other, is to simply use two different browsers.  For example, you can log into Gmail account 1 using Firefox, then Gmail account 2 using Microsoft Internet Explorer, and even Gmail account 3 using Google Chrome.

Since each browser keeps track of its own cookies, you can have unique sessions on the same site (Gmail, eBay) without one inferring with the other.

Yeah, it’s incredibly simple, but very useful.  Thank the browser wars!

Canon Rebel XT

Canon does not seem to provide a driver for the Canon Rebel XT camera that is compatible with Windows Vista 64 bit.   This leaves you with the option if purchasing a compact flash reader to transfer you photos – but, not anymore.

All you need to do to get Windows Vista 64 to recognize your camera is to change one setting in your camera’s setup screen.  Turn on your Canon Rebel XT, Press the ‘Menu’ button and go to the 2nd menu.  Then, under ‘Communication’ change it from ‘PC Connection’ to ‘Print/PTP’.  Yes, it seems counter intuitive but it works!
That’s it.  Told you it was easy.

One more video after the break.

1.) A tribute to Jeremy Clarkson and Top Gear.  Sadly the last episode in the series (ever??) today.

2.) Some amazing trials riding in Ediburgh.
