Can I extend the console object (for rerouting the logging) in javascript?

Question

Is it possible to extend the console object?

I tried something like:

Console.prototype.log = function(msg){
    Console.prototype.log.call(msg);

Try following:

(function() {
    var exLog = console.log;
    console.log = function(msg) {
        exLog.apply(this, arguments);
        alert(msg);
    }
})()
