I posted the second part of a ScreenCast series on implementing the Windows 7 Taskbar features in less than 10 minutes at Channel9. The short video shows how to leverage the Windows 7 Taskbar Icon Overlay feature for your application.

I will use the happy/sad icons shown below to indicate the mood of my demo application using the Windows7 taskbar.
