Probably the same way by which it keeps track of you when you are logged in: setting a cookie in the browser. I didn't verify this, but that is how basically all web services do it. If you clear the galaxy cookies I expect you will end up in a new empty workspace.

Hi folks,

Quick question.  When two different users use the same Galaxy instance without logging in, how does Galaxy keep their identities straight, such that when they come back to their computers the next day, they see only their own workspace and not the other user's workspace?

Thanks!

Melissa
