I am trying to start off with a blank screen in JavaScript console, but for some reason, it has all of this info on there, and it looks like the info is referring to the google homescreen page? I just want my page to look blank like the video. Any ideas of what is happening?

First,make sure you are in the Console tab by clicking on 'Console' on the menu bar. Then type clear() and hit enter at the prompt. This should clear the console of any previous information.
I hope this helps.
