space        +
mehhhh..........


Form Methods - GET vs. POST


GET: 
   parameters in URL
   used for fetching documents
   maximum URL length
   ok to cache
   shouldn't change the server

POST:
   parameters in body
   used for updating data
   no max length
   not ok to cache
   ok to change the server

Validation
   Verify server received what we expected....

Hmmm, this is much heavier on HTML than I was hoping for. Not useful (for me). Abandoning ship.

Positives: Exposed to the process of posting a python app on Google's appspot, looked at HTML (wouldn't have taken the time otherwise)
