How to link Gmail with other Google products/services?

Google accounts
.: Do you know that we can "link" all of our Google accounts using only one username?  ;-)

Create your Gmail account first, and later use this trick~
Linking Gmail account with other Google products or services means we are integrating one account to another. So later we can login to any account without need to rewrite our username (login ID) and our password again and again~

How do we do this "linking / integrating" process?
  1. Sign in into our Gmail account.
  2. Next, open a new tab (not a new window), and go to Blogger in Draft website.
  3. Your screen should somewhat look kinda similar to this~
  4. Now this is the Blogger in Draft account in your browser's new tab.
  5. Type your Gmail password, click 'Sign in' into your Blogger in Draft.
  6. And now you're finished integrating~   :-)
It's easy right? Haa...  ;-)

Some explanation about step number three:
  • When we signed in into our Gmail account, Google actually stores an internet cookie(s) in our computer. 
  • This internet cookie is normally a piece of text, containing a little information about our Gmail account. 
  • Blogger in Draft is also a service provided by Google, so when we open Blogger in Draft in a new tab, our Gmail cookie is also read by Blogger in Draft. 
  • That's why our Gmail username is already there when you open the Blogger in Draft website, but the password is still in blank.
  • By typing in our password, it means that we agreed using the Blogger in Draft (integrated) with our Gmail address as our username~
  • By right, in order to use Google Blogger in Draft we need to register our e-mail address before we can use it. Blogger in Draft does not limit us to use Gmail address only, because we can use our Y!mail or other e-mail account for account registration. But integrating our Gmail like the steps above can save a lot of our time~   :-)

The same step can be applied when we want to integrate other Google services with our Gmail account. With one Gmail account, we can use multiple services that will benefit our internet marketing strategy. Gmail is pretty handy address, eh?
