At the very least, url validation should be in place - like a unique constraint on a column maybe?

This article was posted here a while back. Good one though.

Page_Load is eveil. Use OnLoad instead :-). I don't like the concept of something being done automatically just because it has some special name!

Besides the point raised by Mads which is valid, does gzip compression support cache or does it compress the data all the time every time?

I'm experiencing some major difficulties with my connection to blogger.com.
It should work now.
