Indeed (although I"m not sure what the "n32" is for ;-) ).
This is not, however, what Amazon and ebay do.
They put the information on other pages one browses, so that
any given Amazon (say) product page is customised with a mixture
of things one has browsed recently, things Amazon thinks I
might want to buy, etc., as well as the main product.
That's a little harder to do RESTfully. You and I fetching the
same resource from Amazon ge markedly different results, and
with good reason. I'm not saying you can't do it, though.
