Installing Google Chrome on Ubuntu

Google Chrome is by far my favorite browser, Ubuntu is by far my favorite OS. Installing Chrome on Ubuntu is not so hard, visit the Chrome website, download the appropriate .deb package, and install. The problem, there is no auto update support.

The solution, simply install the PPA for Google Chrome and you'll be good to go:


wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add - sudo sh -c 'echo "deb http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install
