I was aware that David HH held a talk about REST at RailsConf06. I just seem to have missed the video footage provided here. If you have a bit of time at hand and your interested in Rails you should consume this. I never really got my head around REST. But getting it explained from the god-father of Ruby on Rails himself somehow enlightend me. I know this doesn't reflect exactly on the current state of affairs. At the time this talk was given REST wasn't around that long yet. And maybe that's exactly why this was easier to understand. David explains in a few examples how he developed the idea which really helped me to get the whole concept into perspective.

If you are still struggeling after the video I suggest you spend $9 for a quasi-personal tutition provided by Geoffrey Grosenbach at peepcode.com. The video is titled RESTful Rails, you can view a preview here. His screencast is defenitly worth more than the $9 he charges for it. This will give you the final boost you need to get working with REST.
