Simple REST APIs
This is how I tend to roll simple REST APIs. It's by no means as full-featured as something like Piston, but it's simple, clean, and it works.

simple tag-cloud Template Tag
This Template Tag computes the font-size of two given arguments and returns a CSS-encoded string like "font-size: XXpx;", which can be used to format the font-size of link. (The minium font-size must be set with CSS.) Requires two arguments: 1. occurrence of the current tag 2. sum of all occurrences It works great for my tag-cloud. [Source of the logarithmic formula](http://www.php.de/php-fortgeschrittene/44928-tag-cloud-algorithmus-fuer-schriftgroessye.html) **Usage** `<a href="http://www.anything.com" {% cloudify variable.occurrence overall. occurrence_sum %} title="anything">any tag</a>`

ContentType Form
When working with the ContentType model there are generally two issues. 1. Models are listed in the table but not imported. 2. Unicode only returns model not application so being able to select a a app/model is sometimes difficult when to applications have a model with the same name. This snippet gets a listing of imported models and creates a drop down for selection. I also included a function that uses the returned from to get and save the correct ContentType within the primary model.
