Ok,
so in a general way and somewhat specific way (for work) I started a REST Web Service.

Like always, working off a popular online example, I banged out a recipe. In the end, I have all the code needed to pass/receive data via REST -- I should have some nice seed stock for an actual project.

Two projects on the horizon, one for work and one for personal.
I'll post about it.
This is the site I have so far (funny 960 template too):
