How do you implement paging in ASP.NET MVC?

Question

Currently, I\'m using a strategy found on many blog posts. Basically, the URL contains the page number (e.g. /Users/List/5 will give you the users on page 5 of your paged list

Ignoring routes for just a minute, you'll just keep the state of the 2 different pages in the URL as querystring parameters.

mysite.com/foo?list1page=2&list2page=8

Then you build the data/pagers accordingly. The pager links will just update the url.

You can get creative with routes to create more friendly URLs, but I think querystring params are perfectly acceptable here.
