After doing some reading on ASP.NET MVC I'm ready to start trying it out for myself.
When I'm learning new stuff I want to have a real project to work on. During the past 10 years I have been working on a framework/platform/call it what you want with functionality for Content Management, File management, invoicing, distribution, shopping and so on.
It's fun and I even have some customers using it.
So when I wanted to learn ASP.NET MVC I started to think about what module in the framework I wanted to start with.
Me and my friends have a whisky society. We meet once in awhile for whisky tastings and have talked about setting up a small website for this. Of course i could use a Starter kit or other open-source applications but this is a perfect project to learn MVC.
The free chapter by Scott Guthrie from Professional ASP.NET MVC 1.0 is a great guide to follow. You can download the PDF here, http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2009/03/10/free-asp-net-mvc-ebook-tutorial.aspx
