For the version where you placed the script tag in the background page, did
you include a permissions section in your manifest?
For the content script version, the way to inject an external script is
something like this:
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.src = "http://www.google.com/jsapi";;
document.body.appendChild(script);
One problem you could then run into with this approach is not knowing for
sure when the network request has actually finished.
