Is there a good practice when to use the session variable. Sometimes I
find myself using both the session variable and instance variable. For

the date both in the session and in the instance variable. Should I
not bother to store it in session? In what situations should you use
the session variable? --
The rails session persists across requests while instance variables do
not. If you need something in a following request it (or a reference)
must be in the session. If you do not need it later I always use an
instance variable.
