Google Analytics: Using chrome's console to track an event?

Question

Will it work if use Chrome console to

_gaq.push(['_trackEvent'...

Will this work even though the ga script has already been loaded?

Answer 1

Yes.

The Google Analytics script replaces the _gaq array with its own object; its new push() function sends requests immediately.

This allows you to use the same _gaq.push() calls both before and after the async script loads.
