[OSX-Users] Tip: Chrome disk space

I discovered that Chrome was eating 10 gigs! It seemed to never delete
old versions when it upgraded itself and I had something like 80 copies
of Chrome inside the App folder.
I deleted all but the latest version from
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/Versions/
and it still seems to work fine, but with a fraction of the footprint.
I've no idea if there are any risks to doing this, so I'm not
recommending it, just saying it worked for me.
