Yes, good idea. I will open source it on Github.

Would be better to know which channel of Chrome got updated (Dev, Beta, Stable?) and also for which platform (Android, iOS, Desktop browser, Chrome OS, Chromecast?). The site to check up on this http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/
It checks that RSS feed, scoped to the Stable builds.
This would be more helpful with a mini-month calendar to show what days in the past 30 it did update.
I purposely disable the google updater and only turn it on when I am ready to update.

Nice idea.
Right now, it is just checking the Chrome release blog Stable channel to see if a release was pushed on the current day http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2013/07/stable-chan....

It says no, but my Chrome just updated... Are you taking into account timezones?
The logic happens server-side but the user's timezone is posted to /content (so I'm guessing yes).
Yes, it should do :)
How much VC$$$ was injected into this startup?
Couldn't raise any money for it oddly...
It just so happened I clicked on this link just a moment after clicking restart link on Chrome to let it update and it still said no?!

Does not check to see if you updated today, which is slightly diff.

If the source were available somewhere on Github/Bitbucket/whatever, people with feature suggestions could do the implementation and submit a pull request.
