The documentation sucks, there is an overload. Intellisense gave me the clue 
but it wouldn't give me the list of overload constructors(is there a 
keystroke or some way to get the list of overloads from Intellisense?)

// This is how conformance to W3C atom:link element is written using the 
XmlWriter...

#region Task: <atom:link> element...
if (link.Length != 0)
    writer.WriteStartElement("atom", "link", null);
    writer.WriteAttributeString("href", link);
    writer.WriteAttributeString("rel", "self");
    writer.WriteAttributeString("type", "application/rss+xml");
    writer.WriteEndElement();
#endregion

// generates the following
<atom:link href="http://somewhere.com/" rel="self" 
type="application/rss+xml"/>

//still working on how to use XmlWriter using writer.WriteFullEndElement()
<atom:value>inner text</atom:value>
