I was reviewing the code for KIGG and noticed that there are so many Interfaces. I am fairly new to MVC and do understand what an interface is, a bit.
How does Interface work in MVC, why is it used?

The same reason you would implement interfaces for other applications…to abstract the implementation away from the usage.
It allows the ASP.NET MVC Framework to use your code even though the Microsoft Developers didn’t have your implementation before they wrote the Framework.
Also, like tvanfosson mentions…the use of Interfaces also greatly enhances the ability of the ASP.NET MVC team to properly Unit Test their Framework.
