Q: 

System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations

Our team is evaluating various ways to validate entity properties and I came across this new feature in .NET. I haven't had much time to learn about what it can do for data valiation. Can someone, who has experience with this, tell me the concept behind this and it's usefulness for use in a C# application.

I understand that times have changed, so maybe you're not ashamed you didn't do the above search. Maybe it doesn't actually indicate laziness.

John - Save the sarcastic and childish comments. Maybe my question indicates that someone asked me what DataAnnotations was all about, and I had never heard of it, and I had meetings the rest of the day, so I had no time to research it. So I thought I'd post a question on StackOverflow to see if anyone had experience with it.

That's a good answer. I actually couldn't imagine a valid reason for a question like that, and now you've admitted to one - you wanted us to do the work for you while you were in meetings.
