MSDN Coding for Fun is doing a holiday feature with a geek gift-buying guide, and a number of Christmas-themed articles. There's a cool wish list app, a screen saver, and from me, a task manager for keeping track of New Years' Resolutions and other things to do. It's pretty straight-forward, but takes advantage of a few nice tricks like the CheckedListBox control, showing your own form as a modal dialog, using notification alerts, and it uses a Mutex to prevent more than one instance from running at once.
