Does anyone know of any good resources (books, articles, existing software, etc...) for learning how to implement A/B split testing in ASP.NET?
FairlyCertain is an AB Testing library for ASP.NET that's worth checking out. It drops seamlessly into your project and doesn't require any of the javascript voodoo that Google Website Optimizer uses (which kills your site's performance and SEO all in one shot).
I've been using it for a few of my projects for several months now with good success.
I have just written a short article describing a technique for doing split testing in ASP.Net MVC. You can check it out here
It will not take much work to make it work with traditional asp.net.
For anyone running into this post again, you may find this useful:
http://github.com/htayebi/AbTestMaster
It's an open source a/b testing framework for ASP.NET MVC which allows you to write the results either in sql database or csv file. You can download the nuget package or if interested, go through the code in github.
Google website optimizer?

I suggest you use Display Modes to achieve A/B testing.
But Display Modes just support simple problems by default.
If you already implement Display Modes in some other scenario. You can consider DisplayModeMatrix (just google it). It helps you use Display Modes more efficiency.

Wth Display Modes you can simply delete/rename views after A/B testing to clean up your project.

I'm writing a Qt application that uses a QWebView to host the UI. Similar to the ImageAnalyzer example in the Qt SDK samples.
I would like to test this UI using an automated method. A scripting interface like Selenium Web-Driver would be preferable.
Any recommendations/examples on how to do this?
Edit:
I'm looking for a solution can identify HTML elements via classes and id's so that it's maintainable and robust to change.
Tools like Sikuli (which are appearance based), don't satisfy this criterion. Note: I believe those are great for quick one-off scripting, they just don't work very well across many different platforms/configurations and over time for my purpose.
There is a WebDriver implementationfor Qt: https://github.com/cisco-open-source/qtwebdriver
Using Selenium tests and this WebDriver you can automate QtWebkit, widget and QML applications
So, I'm not sure this would satisfy your "Qt application that uses a QWebView" requirement, but when you say "I'm looking for a solution can identify HTML elements via classes and id's so that it's maintainable and robust to change." I can think of WatiR (which is a "browser driver").
It's open source so perhaps you could adapt it to drive your application.
There is also a .Net version called WatiN, but then you are restricted to Windows.

I'm using ASP.NET on my current website and now I need to add some blogs to the site. I need at least 5 multiple blogs and I'm looking for a solution in ASP.NET.
I have been using WordPress before and was looking at Wordpress MU but as I'm running ASP.NET on this website it seems like a bad idea to combine these two. Also the blog is going to be in a subdirectory that I need to protect with ASP.NET so only logged in users can see the blog.
What is the best alternative for multiple blogs in ASP.NET? Or do you think I shall just use WordPress anyway?
Not the best answer:
But it is possible to adjust/extended the open source BlogEngine.net to handle multiple sites.
http://blogengine.codeplex.com/
That being said, it will take some work to make it support a "blog-network", but there are a bunch of developers out there that have done it, and there was an old project based off version 1.3 that handles multiple blogs.
Blogengine now has direct support for multiple blogs.
Is very fast and easy to use.
And it can work without a database if you prefer.
To understand how multiple blogs works and how to configure it look at Introducing Multiple Blogs in Single Instance for BlogEngine.NET
There's Community Server, which is the engine used by MSDN blogs. Back in the day CS used to be an open source ASP.NET showcase project, but it ended up being monetized. I don't know if they still have a free version.

Is that what are you searching for?
There is a free version of basecamp that allows only a few developers to use the software. It is limited to just one project and doesn't have all the bells and whistles as other software, but it works. I'm not sure if it will replace Project Place, however, because I have never used Project Place.
Hopefully it has the same features. If not, then good luck in your search.

I'm building a desktop application in Flex/AIR, and one of the current items on my TODO list is to develop a help system.
Throughout the GUI, there are little (?) buttons. When the user clicks one of those buttons, a HelpPanel appears, displaying some relevant information from the docs.
Simple enough.
But I'd really like to build a full-fledged help system, just like the ones normally deployed in desktop apps: a hierarchical table of contents, the ability to search for keywords, hyperlinking between help topics, etc.
Also, since my app will provide an API for plugin authors, I'd like to also provide hooks for third-party plugins to integrate their own documentation in with the core help system.
With my app, the user may not always be online, so all of the help data must be available locally (though it'd be very cool if new help content could be synchronized periodically from a server).
Building that kind of help system from scratch would be relatively straightforward, but it would also take a lot of time away from actually developing the core features of my application, so I'd rather use an off-the-shelf solution.
I've done a bit of googling, but can't find anything that fits the bill.
Any suggestions?
You might consider using the AIR html control to display html help files bound to links in your app, and built using any number of available tools for constructing HTML help screens.
If you design it using a conventional web server directory and file structure, there are plenty of tools for maintaining synchronized files.
This link references an AIR-based help system, and a possible interface to RoboHelp.
Here is a link to the RoboHelp "Packager".

I have a small site I developed for a friend that uses ASP.Net MVC and was wondering if I could hook it up to dotnetnuke or another CMS. Or is doing an admin site using dynamic data?
Here is a list of a few ASP.NET MVC based CMS's. However these are not based on the current release candidate but I think they are a pretty good start.
N2 Open Source ASP.NET CMS
http://n2cms.com/
Oxite
http://www.visitmix.com/Lab/Oxite
Hydrogen CMS
http://www.hydrogencms.net/Home.aspx
Take a look to Kooboo (kooboo.com). A simple to use and flexible CMS based upon ASP.NET MVC.
I wish there was a good CMS in MVC. However MVC isn't even RTM yet!
The thing with current .NET CMSs are that they don't handle URLs very well.
I'm hoping a CMS built on MVC will pop up at some point.
Try Composite C1. I have developed a few MVC modules for this. The good thing is that you can have both MVC and Web Form modules working side by side in this CMS.
Take a look at OpenSourceCms.com, they might have what you're looking for or the demos there might at least help lead you to an answer.
Oxite might be the closest to what you are after at the moment although I think it is more of a blog engine.
In my opinion, the only decent CMS is the one you write yourself. Just the features you want, with no inactive sections, but if you want to have a solid base to start with, try MVCwCMS (Please note I'm the author).
