REST and jquery ajax

when I use jquery and ajax am I using REST? Is rest just asynchronous post/get etc?

$.ajax({
  type: "POST",
  url: "some.php",
  data: { name: "John", location: "Boston" }
}).done(function( msg ) {
  alert( "Data Saved: " + msg );
});

No. It has more to do it with how the service urls are formed. And also the methods to access them GET, POST, PUT etc

Example,

GET /item/all <- Gives all items

GET /item/id <- Gives item identified by id

POST /item <- Creates new item

PUT /item/id <- Updates item identified by id

DELETE /item/id <- Deletes item identified by id
