    Hello,

    Web services can be used in a RPC/RMI fashion, but they are actually a much more general purpose messaging mechanism. For example, you can use web services for other message exchange patterns like one-way messaging, solicit/response, publish/subscribe. Not all web service platforms support all of these message exchange patterns, but you should see much more general support in the Windows Communication Foundation.
