Rich Turner, PM on the Indigo team, answers lots of FAQs related to Indigo and how to prepare for it today, including:

• How do I prepare my code and systems to ease my adoption of Indigo?

• How much of my code will I have to change to migrate my code to Indigo?
• How will Services Perform & Scale?

Thanks for pointing me at Rich, folks. I’m enjoying his Indigo blog a great deal!

My call for Indigo bloggers was very successful (although most recommendations came via email), providing several interesting Indigo web blog possibilities.

One of the features that Jason built into his ImageStack application was animated zooming using timelines, which he describes in some detail here.

Jason Nadal has posted a sample application for viewing a stack of images in Longhorn (with code).

Lori Pearce, the Matriarch of the Longhorn SDK, describes what goes into the LHSDK and how it’s built. The scope is beyond belief. 

Brian McMaster from the Windows Forms team provides an article on how to automate Windows Forms applications for testing via tools like Visual Test. Check it out if that's the kind of thing you want to do.
