Recursion of anonymous functions

When I declare anonymous function, like

(function(){
    //do something...
})();

name of the function is not added to any scope, either local or global, because there is no name at all. When I want to call the function again, for example in timer functions like setTimeout(), I simply call arguments.callee inside it

(function(){
    //do something...
    setTimeout(arguments.callee, 1000);
})();

According to Mozilla Developers Center:

arguments.callee allows anonymous functions to refer to themselves, which is necessary for recursive anonymous functions.
