The nice thing about REST is that it's very well supported in Rails, to
the point that exposing things through REST is as simple as doing
traditional WUI responses (actually simpler, since you don't have to
worry about those pesky views)

In terms of implementation, it is definitely the quickest way to get an
API going.
