so yeah, hi i'm steve and my talk is titled everything you know about rest is wrong and that may not be true for all of you but i find that true for the majority of sofware developers especially rails developers, ironically so, before we talk about all that stuff if you think rest has anything to do with having pretty URLs, for your APls or, if it has anything to do with routing requests or, using HTTP methods or, JSON or XML, specifically if you think any of these are key to actually building a RESTful API you're actually wrong and it's fine, because you've been mislead by propaganda from other people for a long time but, I'm going to talk to you today about why you should care about doing actual REST and what that actually even means so, before you should listen to me tell you all this stuff
