My preferred Web application development platform is ASP.NET / SQL Server combo. I am starting a new Web development Project. Should I give a look-in to ASP.NET MVC ? Is it worth the effort ?

Yes it is.

Will you take longer up front to build the same thing a Webforms guy will? Yes.

Will you have untold flexibility in your HTML, CSS and Requests? HELL yes.

Use MVC, it's much better.

I always found that asp.net webforms was Microsoft's way of trying to use winforms on the web. The result is relatively poor because that's just not how the web works...

What i really like about mvc is the 'seperation of concerns' which leads to maximal code reuse and a much more logical way of thinking.

You can create different views for the same controllers so it's much easyer to write for different devices.

mvc turns out to be a good alternative to asp.net in almost every case...
