The objective of this project is to iteratively build a very lightweight MVC based asp.net blog engine. The first version of this engine will only have a very limited functionality to display, add, and edit posts, and comments. In addition there should be support for atom and rss. Additional versions will have a richer feature set. The basic architecture will be based on the following technologies, MVC, Linq to Sql, the asp.net membership model, and WCF. Memberships will be used to control who can do what on the blog. Linq to Sql will be used to generate the object model from the data design and MVC will be the technology of the front end and controller, which will allow us to easily expose posts and content with seo urls.
