Very nice sample of clear, concise code.
This can easily be added to a custom CultureInfo class to allow for extending number formatting, or use .NET 3.0 extension methods to add it to the Int32 class.
since the c# switch doesn't translate very well to vb, let me offer this vb version:
Public Function ToOrdinal(ByVal value As Integer) As String
If value Mod 100 > 10 And value Mod 100 < 20 Then
Return value.ToString & "th"
Else
Select Case value Mod 10
Case 1
Return value.ToString & "st"
Case 2
Return value.ToString & "nd"
Case 3
Return value.ToString & "rd"
Case Else
Return value.ToString & "th"
End Select
End If
End Function
