I am storing some items in chrome local storage. Along with my variables I can see
google_experiment_mod: "335"
I am wondering what it means.
Below is the code to to store the items and I use chrome developer tool to see the content.
localStorage.setItem("freqInMins", response.freqInMins);
Thanks
The clear() method removes all the Storage Object item for this domain. The clear() method belongs to the Storage Object, which can be either a localStorage object or a sessionStorrage object.
It is limited to about 5MB and can contain only strings. LocalStorage is not accessible from web workers or service workers.
Many browser extensions store their data in the browser's so-called Local Storage, which is nothing else than a storage location managed by the web browser. And as the same suggests, all is saved locally on the machine where the browser is installed.
Using the localStorage. To check if a key exists or not in localStorage, we can use the localStorage. getItem() method. The localStorage. getItem() method takes the key as an argument and returns the key's value.

I have that too under the web inspector, but only on certain sites. I use mac and I am using Safari. I also found while searching "experiments" in the resource content on the google homepage something that says "dnssec-nd.gexperiments1.com", so I'm guessing that "gexperiments" means "googleexperiments" , and its probably something google uses to track everyone's time or something like that. so its probably nothing.
