You may finally be able to change your old, embarrassing Gmail address

[phillynews215]

TL;DR

• Right now, changing your Gmail address lies somewhere between being impossible and a giant headache.
• In a newly update Hindi support doc, Google reports that it’s changing this, and will let you choose a new address without losing any data.
• Changes will be limited to once a year, and only three times total.

A new year can be a chance to reinvent yourself, whether that’s learning a new skill, getting in shape, or trying out a new look. And while you’ve got no shortage of options there, some changes are just beyond our reach — like say, for example, if you wanted to change your Gmail address. You can always sign up for a new account, sure, and maybe even set up forwarding from your old address, but there’s no clean way to just change from one Gmail address to another. But that looks like it could all be about to change.
