Scheduled task as chrome extension
Can I make a scheduled to be as part of chrome extension ? I would like to write the task in JavaScript and make it run periodically in the browser while the browser is running.

Check out Chrome.alarms:
Use the chrome.alarms API to schedule code to run periodically or at a specified time in the future.
