Original Blog Entry: Update for Google Chrome Available (Already!)

Todd — Sat, 06 Sep 2008 19:49:06 GMT

For those who have installed Google's new Chrome (I really don't like that name) Web browser, there is already the first update available, but you may not be aware of it.

I have read about a major security flaw in the browser lately, so I was surprised when I did not see the browser update itself at some point.

I just happened to be poking around in the interface and noticed a small message at the bottom of the About window stating that an update was available.

So if you have Google Chrome, here's how to get the update:

Click the button in the upper-right corner with the wrench symbol on it. Select About Google Chrome from the menu. At the bottom of the About window (to the left of the OK button) you will see a message that either states that the browser is up-to-date, or that an update is available. If an update is available, click the message to install it, and then (as it instructs) close all instances of the Chrome browser that you have open. (After they are all closed you can re-open them.)

The new version is 0.2.149.29 (build number 1798).
