I was ponding about this if the social authentication is needed or wanted? But it's a great exercise and I guess we can collect more information who is in a chat like profile pic, etc.

I am thinking about Twitter and Facebook. (because I haven't done these two in Hapijs)

@nofootnotes what do you think?

Great articles to get yourself familiar with cookies versus tokens.
