Just because someone asked me how to do it today: here is an article on how to use the System.Web.Caching.Cache object outside of web applications, such as in your Windows Forms applications or console applications. No need to reinvent the wheel.

It is kind of old news I guess.
More interestingly, the actual Cache class should've existed outside the System.Web namespace. It feels wrong to put it in System.Web, whn it could be used anywhere.
Some namespace like System.Caching would've been a better place for the Cache class.
Hi,
The MSDN documentation now warns against using the System.Web.Caching.Cache class outside of web applications in .NET 2.0 environments.
