Hi all,
  I'm still wacking away at my first google app.  Quite a transition
from the java web apps I'm used to writing.

  I'm wanting to be able to recognise a user (without using the gmail
thing) for a chat application.  The idea being the anonymous users
will show up at the site and I'll assign them a username like
'guest1145'.  Then any messages they type would show as from that
user.

  To do this I find myself wanting something like sessions, which
apparently aren't built in to app engine.

  So I figure the first piece of the puzzle is to work our how to
store and retrieve cookies.  Attempts using HttpResponse.COOKIES and
HttpResponse.get_cookie have met with failure.  No attribute of that
name...

  Having got that working I figure I can create a user object and
stick it in the datastore.  Then grab the key and wack it in the
cookie.

  Any tips gratefully received.

Cheers,
Pete
