Creating plug ins for an ASP.net app

Hello.
I would like to build my app in sort of a "plug and play" way and i dont
know how.
I would like to have a directory on the server with DLL files, each
including a class (derived from some base class i will use),
and my program will iterate these classes and by creating an instance of
these classes.
So this way each time i want to add a feature to the app i will only have to
add a DLL file and w'ont have to tuch any other file on the server.

How can i do this?
Thank you

Pink Panther,

Take a look at DotNetNuke: www.dotnetnuke.com I think they are closest to
doing what you describe.
