As far as I know it's not possible to host non WCF Services via the Windows Azure Service Bus, there was talk at TechEd from Clemens Vasters on a new feature coming soon "IIS Hybrid Cloud Bridge" that should meet this requirement.
You can host whatever type of service you want. Windows Azure web/worker roles are basically Windows Server 2008 VMs with some scaffolding code. In the OnStart() or Run(), you can fire up a process that listens on a port (which you also have to create an Input Endpoint for).
At that point, you're up and running. This is how you'd run something like MongoDB as well (at least a standalone instance or shard router), where you open up port 27017 and then run mongod. Exe with that port number.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
