Where could I find a clear explanation of JWT use ? I found this document (http://self-issued.info/docs/draft-ietf-oauth-json-web-token...) that describes the JWT encoding. But it doesn't discribe how it is supposed to be used. Where it is stored, how it authenticates a user, etc.

What makes it better than a cookie session ID ? I don't get it.
