I love the ease and simplicity of REST, but once one assumes messaging is the correct paradigm, then there is need for an envelope to carry along the metadata used to correlate the message responses with the requests since this may no longer be a synchronous request/response. Secondly, in the world I'm describing, as I'll be making clear in future posts, a fair amount of information has to come in the request in order to enable the service to synchronize its response. This isn't possible if the request is limited to a URL which is limited by most systems to 2K bytes. Thus I think the argument that the REST folks make for all queries being GET's is impractical. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.adambosworth.net/archives/000015.html"&gt;more...&lt;/a&gt; &lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3538745-107022609233546902?l=alexissmirnov.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3538745/posts/default/107022609233546902'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3538745/posts/default/107022609233546902'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexissmirnov.blogspot.com/2003/11/adam-bosworth-im-not-huge-fan-of-rest.html' title=''/><author><name>alexis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05445357898720219671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='10373199235799535743'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538745.post-107003462620380130</id><published>2003-11-28T07:50:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2003-11-28T07:51:14.090-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.ipodsdirtysecret.com/"&gt;iPod's Dirty Secret - Neistat Brothers&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Don't you LOVE when the anti-marketing machine is as slick as the marketing machine!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3538745-107003462620380130?l=alexissmirnov.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3538745/posts/default/107003462620380130'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3538745/posts/default/107003462620380130'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://alexissmirnov.blogspot.com/2003/11/ipods-dirty-secret-neistat-brothers.html' title=''/><author><name>alexis</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/05445357898720219671</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='10373199235799535743'/></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3538745.post-106865239946821418</id><published>2003-11-12T07:53:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2003-11-12T07:54:23.606-08:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>Here's what i've learned from &lt;a href="http://tbray.org/ongoing/When/200x/2003/11/09/SemWebFirstStep"&gt;Tim's critique&lt;/a&gt; of Clay's critique of Semantic Web: It's ok to not try to boil the ocean.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It is unjust to dismiss a grand theory as falure when small-scale applications of such theory may succeed.

Sure, that would be nice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But, one of the things I love about CLR is the tools I get to use when coding against it. One thing I love about VJM is that it remains single most solid cross-platform runtime for managed code (I don't yet consider Mono solid enough). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here's a question:&lt;br /&gt;Has anyone tried to build anything using J# on Windows and Sun's JVM on other platforms.&lt;br /&gt;It should be theoretically possible: &lt;br /&gt;J# has the same syntax as Java.

According to MoonlightGroove (moderator of &lt;A href="http://www.groove.net/support/forums/"&gt;Groove support forums&lt;/A&gt;) this is one of those problems that just would not happen in their lab. &lt;/P&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;P&gt;Having shipped 8 software products in my life I can relate to the pain support and development teams experience in trying to hunt down those kinds of problems. So I'm now installing patches, running Groove in debugger, sending call stacks and memory dumps to&amp;nbsp;Groove Support and waiting catch that rare crash. The point is, if you care about a product&amp;nbsp;- help its developers to help you.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;P&gt;MoonlightGroove &lt;A href="http://www.groove.net/support/forums/messageview.cfm?catid=17&amp;amp;threadid=6198&amp;amp;highlight_key=y"&gt;announced&lt;/A&gt; yesterday that the latest patch release 2.1b fixes some of the crashes.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;P&gt;As an added bonus,&amp;nbsp;I found activation code for Groove Professional Edition in my in-box this morning as a birthday gift from MoonlightGroove.
