Just wanted to point out a minor flaw though. In "How to convert from DateTime to DateTimeOffset" you say "If you don’t supply an offset, then GMT is assumed.". Actually it depends on the DateTime.Kind property of the DateTime you supply to the constructor. See the remarks in this <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb337819.aspx" rel="nofollow">MSDN article</a> for the details. Regards, Robin Interesting article, thanks!
