?? Coalesce for empty string?

Question

Something I find myself doing more and more is checking a string for empty (as in \"\" or null) and a conditional operator.

A current example:

C# already lets us substitute values for null with ??. So all we need is an extension that converts an empty string to null, and then we use it like this:

s.SiteNumber.NullIfEmpty() ?? "No Number";

Extension class:

public static class StringExtensions
{
    public static string NullIfEmpty(this string s)
    {
        return string.IsNullOrEmpty(s) ? null : s;
    }
    public static string NullIfWhiteSpace(this string s)
    {
        return string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(s) ? null : s;
    }
}
