As of April 1, Gmail will have been around for 22 years. Many of us have a poorly chosen email address that’s laced with regret, but we’re now stuck with it. We’ve perhaps had it for longer than most college students have been alive and that’s how others get in touch with us. Google is now giving us a chance to move on and change our Gmail address to something more appropriate.
All users in the US can now change their Google Account username — the bit before the @ in your Gmail address. Google said in December that it was gradually rolling out this option to all users.
