Answer 1

You can migrate your website to .Net 3.5 without requiring any code changes. Depending on the language you are using there are several new features in 3.5 that can greatly simplify your code. This does not have to be an all or nothing proposition. I would recommend that you take advantage of the features that make sense for new code but leave the old code as is until there is time/money to convert it. Some of the new features include:

Linq (Linq to SQL and Linq to XML being the predominant variants), Auto-Implemented Properties, implicit typing, object initializers, collection initializers, anonymous types, lambda expressions, and extension methods are the major language new features.
