Here. Before they hit it big on the stage during their keynote demo, Chris Anderson and Don Box recorded their now famous "Lap Around Longhorn" demo for MSDN TV. Enjoy!
Here. The new stuff in Longhorn ain't just for developers. In addition, the Microsoft Windows Hardware Central site has a bunch of resources dedicated to building drivers in Longhorn, including details of the Driver Developer Conference coming up in November.
Here. Sorry for the delay in announcing this, but I had a devil of a time posting blog entries from the PDC. Anyway, the thing I've been working on for the last six months in now live and I've you to take a look and tell me what you think.
If you're a developer interested in knowing about Longhorn so that you can make decisions on your current projects or so you can dive right in and program against the PDC bits, this is the site for you.
The LHDC includes community news on the Editor's Blog (the "Longhorn" category of this blog), tons of articles and whitepapers (with more to come), links to Longhorn samples, directions for MSDN subscribers that want the bits but weren't able to come to the PDC, the Longhorn newsgroups hosted on the web in case you don't like using a newsreader, the Longhorn SDK (with live annotations) and more as I think of it.
Enjoy.
Here. Chris Burrows compiled a list of recommended .NET development tools from the Windows Development Off Topic list's thread on that subject. Some very cool stuff on this list that I'd never heard of.
Here. Don points at the Lipsum generator, which generates Lorem Ipsum text in any quantity you like.
In addition, Word has an Autotext feature that does similiar thing with "the quick brown fox...":

Here. Regular Expressions seems a popular thing to build a tool around. The Regular looks cool. They all look cool. Why weren't any of these tools around when I started building RegexD?!?
Here. "When SourceGear needed to move its SourceOffSite product away from the Microsoft® Java Virtual Machine (MSJVM), which Microsoft is no longer able to fully support as a result of a legal agreement with Sun Microsystems, SourceGear turned to C# and the Microsoft .NET Framework."
