Excellent [caching
article](http://msdn.microsoft.com/asp.net/default.aspx?pull=/library/en-us/dnaspp/html/aspnet-cachingtechniquesbestpract.asp) by [Steven A. Smith](http://www.aspalliance.com) worth a read
by anyone using caching and ASP.NET. I'm currently reading a book on Windows Forms
programming - I'm primarily a web programmer, the WinForms world is new and scary
to me! Anyway, the [book](http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1930110286/ref=sr_aps_books_1_2/202-9648198-6025438) is [Windows
Forms Programming with C# by Erik Brown](http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1930110286/ref=sr_aps_books_1_2/202-9648198-6025438) - so far (I'm about a quarter of
the way through), it's an excellent book and takes a project driven approach to the
subject - which I find far easier that the pure theoretical approach...
