Abstract
The technologies that underpin a web application were not designed for stateful user interactions. The fact that we can build credible web applications at all is because of a lot of clever tricks and techniques built in to frameworks like ASP.NET. Web applications are like a magic trick; we form sessions from a series of stateless network requests, we hide essential information in the HTML we generate, and we express complex data relationships using simple markup.
