##Post-completion comments
- This was a useful recap of the work we did on the Bookmark Manager tutorial in the days beforehand, with a few extra twists thrown in. It did help me to reinforce the new concepts and to get used to the more complex directory structure. I also managed to incorporate some CSS which was quite rewarding.
- I enjoyed investigating the code required for the extra functionality, e.g.users can only can peep if they are logged in, and displaying messages in chrono order with properly formatted time/dates.
