How to get server side date time without your own server

Introduction

Sometimes we want to get server side date-time but we do not have our server to do it. This article teaches you how you can do this (I use Google.com's Header site).

Background

I use the System.Net Namespace to do it.

Using the code

string URL = "http://www.google.com";    
System.Net.HttpWebRequest rq2 = (System.Net.HttpWebRequest)System.Net.WebRequest.Create(URL);
System.Net.HttpWebResponse res2 = (System.Net.HttpWebResponse)rq2.GetResponse();
DateTime Date = DateTime.Parse(res2.Headers["Date"]); 

Now , you can get server side date and time in your DateTime variable.

Enjoy ;-)
