XML provides many opportunities to share and store data. One of the most common and simple uses of XML is to use it to store data used by your application.
Every application uses data. The traditional way to store this data was in INI files. Then came registries. Now, more and more applications use XML files to store their app settings.

If you have a hot tip and we publish it, we'll pay you. However, due to accounting overhead we no longer pay $10 for a single tip submission. You must accumulate 10 acceptable tips to receive payment. Be sure to include a clear explanation of what the technique does and why it's useful. If it includes code, limit it to 20 lines if possible. Submit your tip here.
