Open in Chrome

Safari extension that opens the current page in Chrome. See this post by John Gruber for the "why" on this one.

Note: the extension depends on an AppleScript application to communicate with Chrome, so it will not work on Windows.

Usage

  1. Download and extract the ZIP file
  2. Install the extension (double-click OpenInChrome.safariextz)
  3. Put the ChromeHelper app anywhere you want and double-click it to register with Mac OS X (nothing will happen yet)
  4. Click the Open in Chrome arrow button in Safari to open the current page in Chrome
