Have a client application that needed to post some referral sales data to a third-party via REST. I did this a long time ago and had to do a refresher course and these were two of the better posts I used for the final implementation. With all the .NET movement towards REST and yesterday’s post about Code-first development with Entity Framework 4 I have to admit that Microsoft is adapting the demand of developers (or the marketplace). There is still a vast gap until it catches up the speed of RoR in development but they are each distinct tools so that day may never come.

Those rest posts:
