Say I have a spline, with just two verticies with bezier handles, and I want to have one of those verticies follow one object, and the other one follow another object as I animate. You know kind of like a rope or something tied between two objects. How would I do that?

If it's rope you want:

I've seen some great results with this!

To bind vertices to other objects:

make spline
add spline select modifier
Select first vertex
add linked xform modifier
bind to dummy object

Do this for every vertex you want to link and you're done!
