@name Cookbook: Resources - Buzz
@description

External resources are URLs that provide JSON data, which are then rendered with the help of
templates. Angular has a resource factory that can be used to give names to the URLs and then
attach behavior to them. For example you can use the
{@link http://code.google.com/apis/buzz/v1/getting_started.html#background-operations| Google Buzz
API}
to retrieve Buzz activity and comments.
