title: Map APIs and REST
body: <p>I'm currently doing an investigation into the use of APIs with mobile and web applications and I've recently stumbled across something called Representational State Transfer (REST).</p>
  
  <p>It seems that MSDN Bing API documents this quite well, but Google Maps API doesn't.</p>
  
  <p>Does anyone know if this interface is just used by Bing or could it be implemented with the use of Google Maps API as well?</p>
