Please list two areas of the assignment you'd like to discuss further with your peers during the next class (examples include better ways to implement something, how to extend your app in certain ways, etc):
- Types of errors
- Debugging Network Errors
- Passing an exact cell without pressing the cell itself
- How to send data for various tasks

Notes
I created about 3/4 of this app using the old videos and the other using the new ones when they came out. This led to miniscule errors in the code that I'm still not sure what they were, but were causing very strange and large problems. For instance I could retrieve user data but not tweet data, as that what unauthorized for some reason. Also, the imageView will not change with URLs for some reason so there's that as well. Overall this app was very difficult and time consuming.
All of the app is complete. Using .superview was a lifesaver for figuring out how to send the cell information to another view through a button press.
