You blog post is misleading, it says it is for ZIP formatted files but in fact System.IO.Compression.GZipStream doesnt create ZIP streams but GZIP streams. Perhaps you want to change it to avoid confusion.

To use ZIP format (not GZIP) it is common using SharpZipLib (not sure aboutthe name of the library)
