Chromium Auto Updater for OSX

August 17th, 2009 by Marshall Yount

I fell in love with Google’s Chrome browser on my old Windoze PC and have missed it terribly since my recent Mac migration.  Now that the Mac version supports Flash, recent builds of Chromium have been getting close to feature parity with the Windows version.  Unfortunately installing updates has remained a laborious chore (note: Google’s Chrome build seems to have an updater built in, but lags Chromium in features and regularity of updates).

Thanks to TechCrunch and Greg Rosen, there is now an automatic updater for the OSX build which downloads the newest version of Chromium.  I’m now running it as a Startup item in my dock.

Dear Chrome: I couldn’t be more pleased to finally have you back!
