There are two possibilities. The string hanging when you crack an egg into the pan or bowl when cooking is the inner membrane. This is the lining between the albumen and the shell and is attached to the inner shell. It often hangs from the broken shell after the rest of the egg has dropped into the dish.
The white stringy thing in the egg next to the egg yolk is called the chalazae. This is a strand of protein that centers they egg yolk in the albumen (the egg white) The freshest eggs have two, most store bought eggs have only one visible if any as they fade away as the egg grows stale.

Egg white is the common name for the clear liquid (also called albumin/albumen or glair(e)) contained within an egg. It is the cytoplasm of the egg, which until fertilization is a single cell. It consists mainly of about 10% proteins dissolved in water. Its primary purpose is to protect the egg yolk and also to provide additional nutrition for the growth of the embryo, as it is rich in proteins and is of high nutritional value. Unlike the egg yolk, it contains little fat.
