Facebook and Quora does it the 2nd way: http://www.quora.com/Swimming/Can-one-swim-from-New-Zealand-to-Australia They eliminate the noun and go straight to the object.

Stackoverflow does it the first way: What is the correct way to do REST urls?

Which should I do?

Most importantly, how does this affect SEO?

Also, if I do the 2nd version, how do I go about writing the “router” for that?

    Perhaps think of ‘blog’ and ‘user’ above as namespaces. If there are multiple uses for How-To-Code you might have to put something behind it.

    Some people tend to be pedantic about “proper REST” but I try to avoid this. I would design your URL schemes so it fits your needs, works well with tools and allows you to simply paste URLs into a browser to test your code.
