I found the following page on i18n and ASP.NET: http://wiki.asp.net/page.aspx/55/internationalization/
The videos were very helpful although they apply to ASP.NET WebForms more than ASP.NET MVC, e.g., the videos show you how to internationalize controls rather than text -- which leads me to another realization: there isn't (or I couldn't find) a resources folder in my MVC applications -- just folders like AppData.
Is there a simple way (like in the videos) to internationalize plain text in ASP.NET MVC? If not, do I have to use some sort of ASP control?
