How many times in a .NET classes have you written public properties like this?

class Testing
{
    private string m_subject;
    private string m_message;

    public string Subject
    {
        get { return m_subject; }
        set { m_subject = value; }
    }

    public string Message
    {
        get { return m_message; }
        set { m_message = value; }
    }
}

.NET has the ability to make that section of code a lot cleaner and easier to read through the use of Auto-Properties.

class Testing
{
    public string Subject { get; set; }
    public string Message { get; set; }
}
