Well there's one benefit of having it defined in the routes.rb now --
you have nice helper methods for the URL's :-)
Some suggests:
# Pluralize your routes
----------------
ActionController::Routing::Routes.draw do |map|
map.namespace :info do |info|
info.resources :citations
info.resources :downloads
info.resources :links
info.resources :recommendations
end
# Install the default routes as the lowest priority.
map.connect ':controller/:action/:id'
map.connect ':controller/:action/:id.:format'
end
-----------
# Pluralize your controller
class Info::LinksController < ApplicationController
def index
@title = "LINKS"
end
end
# Use a helper method for the url
---------
<li><%= link_to "Links", info_links_path %></li>
---------
You can see what routes have been defined by executing the following
rake command in your application:
$ rake routes
May I suggest you read up on Restful routing on the Rails Guide
(free):
http://guides.rails.info/routing.html#restful-routing-the-rails-default
Peepcode also has a great screencast on the subject (not free):

Cheers!
