If you are a Google Chrome user, you might have noticed that a new version of this browser gets released every six weeks with loads of security and bug fixes. While this is good as it means it keeps your Internet browsing always secure and up to date, it also means that you waste a few minutes updating and installing new version of browser now and then, and also configure and sync it according to your needs. But from now, this will not be the case as Google Chrome come with automatic updates pre-enabled.

Dharani Govindan, Technical Program Manager posted in Google Chrome blog, (http://chrome.blogspot.ca/2012/06/yet-another-chrome-release.html) "We know you’re probably tired of hearing about new Chrome releases every six weeks. Well, the good news is you don’t have to worry about updating—we'll take care of that with automatic updates. Please enjoy the hundreds of bug fixes we've batched up in this release."

This means you will be now able to browse freely without worrying about manually updating your browser. So while you surf the Internet, updates get downloaded and installed in the background and you will be up to date always. Another awesome feature of Google Chrome that sets it apart from other browsers!
