About

Microsoft ASP.NET MVC is a web application platform that implements the model-view-controller pattern as part of the ASP.NET framework.

Unlike ASP.NET Web Forms, it avoids view state and server-side form events, gives developers full control over generated HTML, uses a front-controller routing system, and supports easier unit testing.

Clacks Overhead is a feature based on the concept of semaphore towers from the Discworld fantasy book series written by Sir Terry Pratchett, an English author and humorist.

It was devised by Reddit users and allows websites to broadcast a message to the world via the non-standard X-Clacks-Overhead HTTP header. This message is usually dedicated to the memory of Terry Pratchett, reading "GNU Terry Pratchett", though it can contain any text.
