    Will email still work if I use other browsers? I have been using the same email so long I forgot how I created it. Maybe it is not dependent on a certain browser?

    I got to mail.google.com for it is my current email account. But where do I find how to set up an account?

    I FOUND THIS:
    To create an account:
    Go to www.gmail.com.
    Click Create account.
    The sign-up form will appear. ...
    Next, enter your phone number to verify your account. ...
    You will receive a text message from Google with a verification code. ...
    Next, you will see a form to enter some of your personal information, like your name and birthday.
    More items...

    Yes, that is what you want but you will probably need to be logged out of your current Gmail account Bill so make sure you know your password before signing yourself out.
