Web applications are everywhere now, but many of them misuse the basic concepts laid down by the HTTP protocol, miss the benefits of making the application and the API the same thing, and don't set themselves up to grow if things take off.

This talk will look at the design decisions you need to make to ensure that your application really is ReST-ful, how we fit that cleanly into MVC, and how state machines can help us manage clean state changes in a stateless protocol. The talk will go into some of the available design patterns with class diagrams and code snippets showing how and where to implement them.

Interesting talk, hard to pitch at an unknown audience experience level, hence http / rest explanation required. Nice to see the ZF example, state pattern etc. Think a picture or two might have helped things flow along, even it it's only train site pics or similar. Drink water :)

Very good talk, too bad it was at the end of the day, since it probably required more concentration than all other talks. Maybe it would help to insert some short intermissions, a picture, a joke, a recap of what we've seen so far, just to give people time to catch their breath, since this type of talk requires the audience to stay focused from start to end.
