It's HTML5's "localStorage", a local database that is all key/value.

localStorage.setItem("theKeyToSaveItAs", "theValue");

OP is saving via localStorage every 2 seconds:

setInterval(function() {

    localStorage.setItem("text", textarea.value);

}, 2000);

Thanks for the code example. I've tracked down where Firefox puts this, and I've realised that the original piece of work will carry on working when saved locally. Quite interesting...
