I think this article actually misses some good criticism of REST that I've encountered over the years: - how do you perform queries across resources? - how do you perform actions that don't map to CRUD actions (e.g. tell a server to reboot itself) - how do you perform actions that are transactional across resources?

I'm not saying there aren't answers to these questions, but doing any of these things in REST is not straight-forward.
