I am trying to create a node using the rest service. I am hitting /myendpoint/node using a post. My header is application/json. I am not sure what I need to post as the data.

Something along the lines of this, &node[title]=testnode&node[type]=story&node[field_test][0][value]=testtting
Also, if you are ever unaware of what to send, just look at the tests.

Kyle, what test were you referreing to in your answer and are there such tests for a D7 Services beginner to take advantage of?– siskoNov 25, 2013 at 9:38

This might give you some ideas: https://gist.github.com/affc9864487bb1b9c918.
I assume you have Content-Type: application/json in your header.
Example curl call with session authentication:
curl -X POST "http://example.com/endpoint/node" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json" -H "Cookie: {session_name}={session_id}" -d '{"type":"story","title":"Test Title","body":"Test Body"}'
Basically you have to post data in JSON format, that maps to the fields of the content type you want to create. If you have custom fields it is just a bit more tricky. See: http://drupal.org/node/1354202.
