Using session makes sense. If for some reason you prefer cookies rather than server-side sessions, there is an option to store sessions in cookies -- see near the end of this section: http://web2py.com/books/default/chapter/29/04#session. In that case, you won't have to change any code and still have the convenience of working with the session object.
