I started the “MvcContrib Ajax Sorting and Paging with jQuery” project at CodePlex, offering a jQuery plugin to accelerate using ajax with MvcContrib grids.

One of the biggest challenges of a web-based business application developer involves presenting data to the user in a fast, useable fashion. Sortable, pageable grids solve this dilemma by introducing the arduous process of creating them. Leveraging and extending MvcContrib and jQuery to provide fast, asynchronous updates (from data sorted and paged on the server) to the user is a win.

My first Tampa MVC users group attendance was last night — this is going to be a good group.
