Delayed TextBox TextChanged event

I have a textbox that does a search upon TextChanged event firing.  However, I don't want it search for every character the users types unless the user is done with typing.  So I wanted to delay it from firing.  I found a great article here that describes exactly what I wanted.  It uses System.Timers.Timer but I changed it to System.Windows.Forms.Timer.
