A good “Wherefore REST?” post.

Spec for a forthcoming book from Leonard Richardson and Sam Ruby. I look forward to finding out how to raise my web service designs above the level of “HTTP+POX”.

Cool stuff (in a gloriously uncool way). A servlet to handle remote Lucene queries which is based on Atom-Pub, XOXO and OpenSearch. Hooray for well-defined standards which will speed up coding.
