TELNET
The fastest way to get a feel of what a HTTP API looks like is to try it using TELNET.
Here is an example of using RestMS via TELNET. You can try this on any computer with an Internet connection. I typed "telnet live.zyre.com 80", then "GET /restms/domain/default[Enter][Enter]" and the rest was output by the RestMS server running at live.zyre.com:
ph@nb200901:~$ telnet live.zyre.com 80
Trying 92.243.7.124...
Connected to live.zyre.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
GET /restms/domain/default
HTTP/1.0 200
