Is there any legitimate reason to use ViewData in asp.net mvc?

I can't forsee an instance where I would use it unless I had static information coming in from a database for a page/master that then got displayed in say a p or some such.

ViewData seems to exist as a simple, convenient approach to something that you really should do a syntactically cleaner way. The MVC equivalent of an ArrayList I suppose- works just fine but you'd be hard pressed to come up with a truly legitimate excuse for using it in good code.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
