Hey Sriram - When are we getting coffee? I'll code against Amazon's gnarly API because I have to, not because I want to. Flickr's another great example of this. I mean, seriously, look at some of the calls, here: http://www.flickr.com/services/api/

I think it's way more logical to POST a photo_id to http://flickr.com/galleries/123456/photos than to POST to http://www.flickr.com/services/rest/?method=flickr.galleries... (note: HN is truncating the displayed link.)

Then again, I don't think I'm in the target demographic for Azure.
