title: What are the differences between WCF and traditional ASP.NET Web
body: <p>I am new to WCF and Web Services in general.  What are the improvements that WCF brings to the table?  Can anyone give a side-by-side example of a traditional web service and the same one written using WCF and point out the differences and advantages?</p>
