Is it possible to have a picklist whose choices come from a web service?

Is it possible to make a picklist whose choices come from a non-Salesforce app, for example from a web service?

For example I want to make a product dropdown but the product choices should come from a database outside salesforce - I'm assuming that would be via a web service but I'm not sure. 

How would I do this?

Bumping this to see if anyone has any ideas.

Another way to word this question is: Is it possible to set up a relationship to objects that are in a non-salesforce app?

I'm picturing that I would set up a dropdown whose choices come from the other app, but if there's a different way to do it I'm interested to hear that too.
