How to program a manifest file for a chrome extention

I'm trying to upload a chrome extension, but I'm being returned an error that my json file has a syntax error, but I can't figure out what it is. Here's the file:

{
 "manifest_version": 2,
 "name": "Drive to Tumblr",
 "version": "1",
 "description": "Posts files from google drive to tumblr",
 "icons": "Extention_Logo_48x48.png"
 },
 "browser_action": {
   "default_title": "Drive to Tumblr",
   "default_icon":  "Extention_Logo_19x19.png",                                
   "default_popup": "button.html"
 }
}

I'm using the given syntax on the chrome developers guide, so could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

You don't need the 1st close brace that you have because the browser_action is still part of the main manifest. This should work:

{
    "manifest_version": 2,
    "name": "Drive to Tumblr",
    "version": "1",
    "description": "Posts files from google drive to tumblr",
    "icons": "Extention_Logo_48x48.png",
    "browser_action": {
        "default_title": "Drive to Tumblr",
        "default_icon": "Extention_Logo_19x19.png",
        "default_popup": "button.html"
    }
}
