title: Consuming a REST service from WCF
body: <p>I'm not that familiar with WCF, but I thought I'll learn while trying to consume an existing service.</p>
  
  <p>One of the REST APIs I thought of was the <a href="http://apiwiki.twitter.com/REST+API+Documentation" rel="noreferrer">Twitter API</a>. I thought of developing a WPF client that will just output to the screen the last 5 tweets by a certain Twitter user.</p>
  
  <p>I was wondering if someone could please briefly outline the steps I need to take in Visual Studio to consume these services, using WCF (classes, wizards, proxies etc.).I already know how to just call them using a web request and parse the XML that returns - I really want to see the WCF part at work.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance to anyoine who helps further my education :)</p>
