I've already started implementing some of the new UI features like Jump Lists in my applications, like this one: http://twitpic.com/ruyiy/full

Thanks for the link. I will be viewing these.

I've started with the new message boxes and taskbar items. Will look forward to reading this soon.

They can be. There is more information you can display, as well as the fancy UI stuff like a progress bar, etc.

I want to look into the jumplists soon.
