In your article you describe different methods for accessing a certain subset of bookmarks. While these subsets in your example are clearly defined ('20 most recent') I am wondering how that would work in the following situation: I want to retrieve information from about 50 different sensors (eg. air quality sensors distributed in a city) where these sensors can be randomly selected from a list or by certain criteria. Would it make sense to add each single sensor to the end of the URL (such as '/bookmarks/id1/id15/id16/...')? Or would it make more sense to POST a XML file that contains the searched sensor ids? I guess the latter approach would not comply with REST, while the first approach implies a hierachy which does not exist. What would be the best RESTful approach? Thanks a lot.
