If you want to insert object, use this:

    currentLogs = [
 { socket_id: 'Server', message: 'Socketio online', data: 'Port  3333', logged: '2014-05-14 14:41:11' },
 { socket_id: 'Server', message: 'Waiting for Pi to connect...', data: 'Port: 8082', logged: '2014-05-14 14:41:11' }
];

console.warn(currentLogs.map(logs=>[ logs.socket_id , logs.message , logs.data , logs.logged ]));

The output will be:

[
  [ 'Server', 'Socketio online', 'Port  3333', '2014-05-14 14:41:11' ],
  [
    'Server',
    'Waiting for Pi to connect...',
    'Port: 8082',
    '2014-05-14 14:41:11'
  ]
]

Also, please check the documentation to know more about the map function.
