Ok assuming you are responding to whitesmith suggestions. There is a install file within the zip file. There should also be a read me file. :)

Chrome or Chromium ? Version 30.0.1599.66 of Chrome is what is currently on my system and that is without a PPA . The updates came via the update manager and once the .deb is installed from the Chrome website the software source is added and the application updates automatically. Ignore this if you are using Chromium.
