Is your Gmail address terrible? You might be able to change itBy Kelvin Chan / APGood news for people who regret the Gmail address they came up with when they registered for an account: Google is now letting users change it. Do not worry, you will still be able to access it because Google is effectively creating a second Gmail address. The old address will remain as an alternate and messages sent to either the old or new addresses will appear in your Gmail inbox. If you do not like the new Gmail address you have created, unfortunately you are out of luck — at least for the next year.
