Nelson on actual implementation of SOAP and REST

Phil Windley posts from ETech: Phil Windley's Technometria Nelson Minar at the Google AdWords API. This is good summary by Nelson Minar on the issues and differences around implementing services in SOAP and REST. I particularly like Low REST and High REST definitions - a good characterization I have been struggling how to explain and rationalize in an implementation for the last few weeks.

For REST to come into its own there needs to be some more formalism along the lines that Nelson suggests and also so does David Orchard.
