Odd MVC 4 Beta Razor Designer Issue
Apr 1214This post is a small cry for help along with an explanation of a problem that is hard to describe on twitter or even a connect bug and written in hopes somebody has seen this before and any ideas on what might cause this.

A few days ago I started getting some odd problems in my MVC 4 designer for an app I've been working on for the past 2 weeks...

Nov 1103I frequently get questions about which option to use for creating AJAX and REST backends for ASP.NET applications. There are many solutions out there to do this actually, but when I have a choice - not surprisingly - I fall back to my own tools in the West Wind West Wind Web Toolkit.

The history of ASP.NET MVC, so far
Jun 1129This post is a mile high overview of the history of ASP.NET MVC, the features it brought with the various versions and the extensibility points introduced.
