I have been asked to create a web service that communicates with Auth.NET CIM and Shipsurance API. This web service will be used by multiple applications (one a desktop and another a web application). Am confused whether to go for WCF or asmx web service . Auth.NET CIM and Shipsurance API have asmx webservices which i would be calling in my newly created web service.So is WCF the right way to Go or can i stay with asmx? Can Some one please guide.

Thanks for the links . But is WCF the right way to proceed ie Calling third party API from WCF would work better than ASMX or should i go with the old ASMX way. And am new to WCF
