RSS Feed Through a Custom Control
This article describes the construction of a very simple custom server control used to display the content returned from an RSS feed. The control consumes a public web service to retrieve the current data from an RSS feed, and the control displays the content along with a user defined label. The public web service returns the feed content as straight HTML which greatly simplifies the process of displaying the data.

Creating an Atom XML Feed
An easy way to promote your site and to attract more visitors is to provide a news feed. Feeds can be read by a variety of programs, including FeedDemon, Mozilla, and the upcoming Internet Explorer 7.0.

Client-Side Enhancements in ASP.NET 2.0
Oftentimes, the overall user experience can be enhanced by intelligently adding client-side script. By associating script with client-side user actions, it is possible to provide a snappier user interface or to enhance the overall experience. For example, when clicking a Delete button on a web form, rather than blindly deleting the record or posting back to a confirmation page, client-side script can be used to display a confirm messagebox, asking the user if they're certain they want to proceed with the delete. Clicking OK would proceed with the postback, while clicking Cancel would short circuit it.
