How to Get Extensions in Google Chrome (Mac)

Are you a Mac user who was recently let down by the lack of features in your new version of Google Chrome? Well, there may be a solution for you! 

Beta versions of Chrome were recently released for the three main operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux), along with a pleasant surprise, plugins. The catch? You can only use plugins if you're running the Windows or Linux versions, or so was the case until last week. 

As an avid fan of Google's blogs, I recently stumbled upon some delightful news in the Chromium blog. For those willing to experiment, you can now download the most recent version of Google Chrome's developer version, and enjoy all the extensions your heart desires. If you're afraid of instability, I've been using the developer verison of Chrome since this past summer and I've had little to no problems with it. One thing to keep in mind is that just like in Firefox, if you have a problem with your browser, you're going to have to troubleshoot with your plugins to sort the issue.

Although extensions aren't for everyone, having the ability to squeeze a little more life out of an already amazing browser makes Chrome even more enticing.
