I love console applications!

I used to write a lot of small C# console applications for quick tasks, but nowadays I tend to use PowerShell more.

I remember back in 2009, at a company I worked for, I was tasked with writing a small utility to trigger a more complex task. When I submitted program.cs for review with instructions to csc program.cs to compile the program, the feedback I got was, "what is this sh*t?" The reviewer was used to web application development only.
