>>I just installed VS 2012 Express and started looking at creating a new web project. I realized now that VS offers two approaches, Web Forms or MVC. And I just read a blog post with tons of comments on the topic. These discussions of Web Forms vs MVC are more heated than liberal vs. conservative <g>. Life was easy when I was in VS 2005 with only Web Forms as an options. I wonder who is doing Web Forms and who is doing MVC?
