In case anyone else missed it besides me, MSDN launched it's Code Gallery site this week.
You can check it out at

thanks to
Somasegar's WebLog :
The MSDN Code Gallery is a portal for snippets, samples and other resources. In it you can find pages that describe samples and supporting documents including screenshots and design documents. In addition, you will find hosted conversations about these samples, sample projects or other resources that have been provided to the community. This destination is open to the entire community to contribute content to.
