Facebooker talk - Dec 2008 - session[:facebook_session]

not sure if my prior message went through, given that I sent before  
confirming my membership to the list.

Is anyone concerned with the practice of saving the entire fb session  
object in the session hash?  I''m likely going to blow away all the  
"@var |= " statements and just use the api calls when I need to access
data, since my understanding is that it''s bad practice to store large  
objects in the session.

The facebook session information is stored in the rails session by  
default. We serialize it to remove the cached objects and store just  
enough to recreate it.
