Install google chrome via apt 3rd party repo, then it will auto-update
=== Status ===
wget -q -O - https://dl-ssl.google.com/linux/linux_signing_key.pub | sudo apt-key add -
sudo sh -c 'echo "deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/ stable main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/google-chrome.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install google-chrome-stable


Install the [https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin hangout plugin] so that it will auto-update via apt.
* Fast, until it's not
* download the plugin from https://www.google.com/tools/dlpage/hangoutplugin

* sudo dpkg -i ~m/Downloads/google-talkplugin_current_amd64.deb && sudo apt-get install -f # to fix any dependencies but there shouldn't be any
* Great profiles with google auth, plugin and bookmark syncing
