Thanks for your comment! Custom Attributes can be used in a lot of different places. Microsoft has many built in attributes including [WebMethod], [Serializable] etc. Attributes are used to give extra feature/information to the objects. You can check out the link below in which I used custom attributes to create a small Validation Framework. I will do a screen cast on this topic too.
