One nice feature also supported by VS 2010 is the ability to optionally “pin” projects to the jump-list as well – which makes them always listed at the top.  To enable this, simply hover over the project you want to pin and then click the “pin” icon that appears on the right of it:

When you click the pin the project will be added to a new “Pinned” list at the top of the jumplist:

This enables you to always display your own list of projects at the top of the list.  You can optionally click and drag them to display in any order you want.
