The better way to do this is to use the [user_is_logged_in()](http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!user!user.module/function/user_is_logged_in/7) function.

There is also a [user_is_anonymous()](http://api.drupal.org/api/drupal/modules!user!user.module/function/user_is_anonymous/7) function if you want the opposite result. Both of these functions are available in Drupal 6 and higher.
