Added HTTP Request code snippit

I'm adding a new category of posts to my blog; code snippits.  I was looking for a tool to manage code snippits when it hit me, why not post them to my blog.  I hope you find them useful.  I'll just randomly post stuff up there as I work on it. 

There are a couple problems with this.  One - the editor forces each line of code to have a <p/> break, so the code looks unweildy.  Two - Some of the code spans methods within a class, and I'm not quite sure how to post that yet.  I'll give this stuff some thought and hopefully have a fix soon.

For now, the first one is self-contained and was easy to post, it's an example of how to do a HTTP request and you can find it here.

What a great idea! Man, somebody should have thought of this before and told me so I could start posting useful code;)

I have spent a lot of time thinking about code snippets. I still haven't found a perfect solution, but I think I'll build one eventually.

Blog is a sucky place for code snippets. Hard to find anything, hard to categorize, hard to post.

For a few years I have been using this tool. Unfortunately it uses a proprietary file format, and it's hard to share snippets. Of course it's not web based, so synching my home and work snippet database is a pain in the ass.

Right now I am in the process of switching to Treepad, which is much more flexible and full featured, but still isn't perfect.

I am thinking about making a project out of building a web based client/server snippet tool in C#, but I have no time for that right now.
