Free Web-Based Exception Reporting

You sign up on the site, download their component, add three or four lines of code to your app, and any exceptions thrown by your users get logged at ExceptionCollection.com for your later perusal (the last 100 anyway). There are several options, like whether reporting requires user approval. Is this as cool as it looks, or a solution in search of a problem?"

This is a great tool - but doesn't sound like it'd be hard to implement yourself if you already are working in SOAP anyways

I think the point was for people using a SOAP capable environment - not necessarially using SOAP themselves. People developing in ASP.NET or Tomcat could well not be going anywhere near SOAP, and yet they can still make use of this service.

From the site:
For .NET, we provide a compiled component (DLL file) so that you don't even have to mess with SOAP and web services.

I'm not sure how keen I would be for all of my website errors to be sent to somebody else for collection. Seems like it could be a major security risk in some situations...
