Easiest way to post to a server on iPhone? I don't care about the response.

Question

I've looked at some of the apple core API stuff, as well as ASIHTTPRequest. It's made me curious - is there a simple way to just send a nonblocking request to a URL? I could do it what seems to be the standard way - make the request object, make a useless delegate object that just ignores the response, and that's how I've been doing it. I'm still pretty new to ObjC in general, so I was wondering if I missed out on something that could save me from writing all this boilerplate code.

If only I could run curl.

Use ASIHttpRequest for all connections. It is a CFNetwork wrapper that is much better than the default Apple NSUrlRequest
