These are my links for January 27th:

• ASP.NET MVC 1.0 Release Candidate Now Available – ScottGu’s Blog – Apparently the MVC has been released into 1.0. Personal Thought 1: I need more time to look into these new technologies. Personal Thought 2: Scott Guthrie must have oodles of time on his hands to write a freaking 50 page blog post.
