Can you start another application's services?

In Android you can use an intent (explicit / implicit) to start another activity. Can the same be done for services? If so links to coded examples and reasons to do so would be appreciated!

If they're exported, yes. If they aren't, no. YOu'd do it the same way you would for a service in your own apk- create an intent and call startService.
