1. One service I use regularly is spotify to listen to music. One feature is creating playlists with different amount of songs in them. One thing behind the scenes with HTTP requests could be with trying to add a song that already exists in a playlist, this would result in some message saying the song is already in the playlist. If the song is not in the playlist it gets added. 2. I will definitly say that I was thinking too much about the lab and ended up trying complicated things but in reality it was a simple fix. This makes me think more about my tech interactions as simpler than I would have expected. However with the errors I recieved it shows how much more there is behind that I didn't see. I was able to see what actually goes into coding an application.
