Alas, delicious's API is not really REST at all; REST implies that every
object has a URI.
Since we don't expose internal database IDs, it's a little ugly to do,
so we just use ?url=.....
/posts/get would be a "method" -- the fact that it has slashes in it is
not terribly important.

Subject: [ydn-delicious] API Verbiage Question
Hmm, maybe this is a REST thing... but I was wondering about
some of
the naming in the del.icio.us API.
Clearly, things like "Update" and "Posts" are called methods.
The query string dealies are called arguments, like &tag and
what not.
What are things like Post's "get" and "recent" called. Are they
sub-methods? Also arguments?
Just curious. Thanks.
