Stefan Tilkov on his blog has produced a useful roll call of REST vs SOAP/WS style bloggers
When designing SOA, it's important to consider appropriate architectural style--and themes from REST or from the Web Services community may be applicable depending on the requirement set. It's incumbent on architects to understand the advantages and disadvantages of both styles to better apply the techniques. This list of bloggers is very useful as a tool for exploring these styles. In particular, if you see yourself in one of these camps, it may be useful to peruse the "other" camp's blogs to gain an understanding of the benefits of such approaches.
