"jQuery throttle / debounce allows you to rate-limit your functions in multiple useful ways. Passing a delay and callback to $.throttle returns a new function that will execute no more than once every delay milliseconds. Passing a delay and callback to $.debounce returns a new function that will execute only once, coalescing multiple sequential calls into a single execution at either the very beginning or end."

" AsyncController is introduced in ASP.NET MVC 2 while SessionLess controller is introduced in ASP.NET MVC 3. AsyncController allows you to perform long running I/O operation(s) without making your thread idle(i.e., waiting for I/O operations to complete). On the other hand, SessionLess controller allows you to execute multiple requests simultaneously for single user, which otherwise execute multiple requests sequentially due to session synchronization. Understanding these concepts may be easy for you but I have seen a lot of guys become confused on these concepts. In this article, I will show you how to use AsyncController and SessionLess controller in ASP.NET MVC application. I will also compare them and tell you what to use when, where, and the why."

"Deferreds, new in jQuery 1.5, decouple logic dependent on the outcome of a task from the task itself. They're nothing new to the JavaScript scene; Mochikit and Dojo have implemented them for some time, but with Julian Aubourg's AJAX rewrite landing in 1.5, deferreds in jQuery was the logical next step. With deferreds, multiple callbacks can be bound to a task's outcome, and any of these callbacks can be bound even after the task is complete. The task in question may be asynchronous, but not necessarily. "

Multiple viewengines for Mobile and Desktop MVC3-apps.

Handy trick to pass extra data to the controler. 

The goal of JsTestDriver is to build a JavaScript test runner which: easily integrates with continuous builds systems andallows running tests on multiple browsers quickly to ease TDD style development.

"Optimizing application performance is a key element for business. There are several ways by which we can optimize the applications performance. It can be done either by server side code optimization, caching or some client side optimization. In this post I am going to discuss about one handy and smart way to optimize web applications performance using Bundling and Minification features which is introduced with ASP.NET 4.5 Developer Preview. ASP.NET 4.5 Developer Preview introduced bundling, which combines multiple JavaScript files for faster loading with less number of requests for download and minification, which reduces the size of JavaScript and CSS files by removing unneeded characters . Combination of these bundling and minification helps web pages to load very faster. Let's have a looks how it works."
