What to use for RSS feeds?
I noticed in Eric Sink's post about Vault's RSS feeds that they use an ASPX file for RSS feeds.Is there an advantage in using ASP files? Maybe the not-so-well-known ASHX files are better adapted as they require less resources and we don't need to render HTML?What I use myself (eg. for the SharpToolbox feeds) is something else : an ASMX with webmethods available for GET requests. The advantage of this method is that the expected parameters are defined just like with any other method, and you get an error if the parameters are not provided as expected. Of course, this is less flexible than a simple URL query where you can have optional parameters.What do you use and why? -

Manipulating CSV files
It doesn't seem to be well known that you can easily access data in CSV files (Comma-Separated Values) using ADO.NET components. For example, you can use the OleDbConnection, OleDbCommand, and OleDbDataAdapter objects to fill a DataSet from a CSV file. You can also update the data. Also notice that it is possible to use Visual Studio's Server Explorer to visualize or edit CSV files.
