title: Hosting a web service in an Android application
body: <p>Is there any way to host a web service from an Android application? I will be hosting RESTful services via WCF and would like to be able to "push" data to an Android app. I understand this could be done with polling but would like to try to avoid that. I was thinking if I could host a web service from the Android app, I would be able to call it from my server. Any ideas would be appreciated.</p>
