Get the Title of a Webpage in Windows Forms Using C#

Here's a simple way to get the title of a webpage in C# using:

static string GetPageTitle(string link)
{
 try
 {
 WebClient wc = new WebClient();
 string html = wc.DownloadString(link);

 Regex x = new Regex("<title>(.*)</title>");
 MatchCollection m = x.Matches(html);

 if (m.Count > 0)
 {
 return m[0].Value.Replace("<title>", "").Replace("</title>", "");
 }
 else
 return "";
 }
 catch (Exception ex)
 {
 Console.WriteLine("Could not connect. Error:" + ex.Message);
 return "";
 }
}
