Like the @zachwill's version, this reloads the active tab of Chrome. However, instead of passing the Applescript to Python, it just sends it as a regular shell command, meaning that if your VIM isn't compiled with a language, this script will work (provided that you are using OS X). To launch it more easily, you can map it:
Also, if your into submodules in your VIM config, you can also add this as a submodule, since all gist are actually git repos:
# In the root of your git repo: git submodule add git://gist.github.com/2369894.git path/to/your/submodules/folder/ChromeReload-vim
