Does this currently only send get and post requests? What about put
and delete?

I understand that we can look at the gems yahoo-search, google-
geocode and geocoder-us for examples, but is their a simpler example
somewhere that demonstrates client and server pieces?

Adding PUT and DELETE would be super-simple. I've never needed it,
though. Give me a simple API using PUT and DELETE to wrap up and I
can add it in a few weeks time (I've got plans for other projects in
my queue). Or you can add it yourself and send me a patch. rc-
rest.rb is only 279 lines and is well-tested.

rc-rest is client-side only. The documentation should contain enough
information to get you started on wrapping an API.

ri RCRest has a super-simple GET example in it for a fake API.
