Question
I'm an experienced client application developer (C++/C#), but need to come up to speed quickly on writing server side code to perform RESTful interactions. Specifically, I need to learn how to exchange data with OpenSocial containers via the RESTful API.

OTHER TIPS
The RESTWiki is a very good resource and then there is the classic "How I explained REST to my Wife".
However, don't forget to go read about it directly from the source, it is not as difficult a read as it may first seem.
And I am assuming you will be doing REST over HTTP so this will come in very handy.
Lastly, considering OpenSocial supports the Atom Publishing Protocol, this will be useful.
Enjoy.
I found this this to be a good introduction to RESTful web apps, although it doesn't refer to OpenSocial containers.
