This post show you how to quickly switch between Gmail and Calendar for multiple Google accounts using bookmarks. This method is faster than logging then visiting your gmail and then selecting the account you’re interested in.
Gmail
You can easily switch between your Gmail accounts by changing this number in the URL:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/#inbox
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/2/#inbox
0 is the (default) which is the Gmail account your first logged into. 1 is the second account you logged into, and so on…
Calendar
This works for calendar as well.
For a weekly view:
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/0/r/week
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/1/r/week
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/2/r/week

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/0/r/month
https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/1/r/month

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/b/2/r/day
