if( myobject?.myproperty?.myotherproperty?.value != null )
The value would return null and not throw an exception.
Anyone have a link to how to use it or at least the syntax?

This operator is called the safe navigation operator in Groovy.
It is not available in C# yet, not even in C# 4.
If enough people show their support for it, maybe it will get into a hypothetical future version of C#…
