Borg vs. Module

[tobiah]

I am making a web app, made up of many modules
that all need access to some important data, like
the current session data, cookies, navigation history,
post/get variables, etc.

I decided to go with the 'Borg' idea, by assigning the
__dict__ of an object to a class variable so that each
instantiation of the Borg() would share the same data.
That way I can either pass the Borg around, or just
Borg() it if I need it in some obscure place.

Then I read an argument that it usually makes more sense
to just have a module with the data and functions that
I need, which all the other modules can simply import.
Since I only need one instance, I could just stuff data
and call 'methods' on this module, probably without even
changing existing syntax.

Are there any arguments as to which method is better?

Thanks,

Toby
