What is REST? A 1-line answer.
I love Jeff Boulter's flippant, but wonderfully concise, description of REST:
I suppose that a corollary for RPC would be:
"It’s a URL that returns XML. That’s it."
I suppose that a corollary for RPC would be:
You send XML and receive XML. That’s it.

Considering the RESTful JSON stuff that's out there, and all the image files and such that's out there, I'd say, "URLs that return stuff."
(Or URIs.)

Eric - ah yes - I much prefer JSON actually.
