Opening 2 or more Facebook Accounts using one Browser

Normally Firefox will not allow you to open 2 Facebook accounts in the same browser. Now you can open 2 Facebook accounts at the same time, with different email addresses.

There are various ways of doing that. You can try to open it in another browser, e.g. Internet Explorer if your current browser is Firefox, use browser that has that features, e.g. Chrome or use Multifox if you are using Firefox. Multifox is a Firefox Extension and can be downloaded and installed easily.

Once installed, you have few options to open a new Firefox window or new profile. The new profile will be numbered accordingly to indicate the number of profiles opened by Firefox. The new windows will be independent from each other.

Now you can open your other Facebook accounts as normal in the new profile window. This is also useful if you have to open several web based emails from the same provider, e,g gmail or hotmail.
