My application needs to make a call to a webservice via an HTTP post. The webservice responds with an integer and a string. I''ve got this working. I need to call this web service from a couple of different controllers. I don''t want it to render a view. Would I put this functionality in application_helper.rb or where would the best place be to put this?

What I''ve done in the past is have a FooProxy class tha handles the details of talking to the webservice in question. It also makes testing a little easier since I just have to mock out the FooProxy class.
