I''m not sure about the version differences and I doubt much can change
in THEORY of how RESTful applications work but I''m just a lowly noob so
bear with me.  You might find this useful:
http://railscasts.com/episodes;archive check out numbers 34 - Named
Routes and 35 - Custom REST Actions.

Like you I''ve spent a lot of time trying to understand REST and it made
no sense at all to begin with but little by little it''s becoming
clearer.  I think the only way to get a real handle on it is to use it.
I found the videos really helpful, the guy explains things so clearly.

When you start to get an idea of what''s going on you might also find
this helpful: topfunky.com/clients/peepcode/REST-cheatsheet.pdf  (if
you''re anything like me that''ll just confuse you until you
start to
grasp the concepts)

hope this helps.
