Jens and Notch havejustannounced that the 1.8 pre-release .jar is available for public testing. It is important to remember that this is NOT The final release of 1.8, and is still extremely buggy. If you find any bugs, or need support, please join the #minecraft channel on irc.esper.net using your favorite IRC client!
NOTICE: This version will only work if you've paid for Minecraft, all the more reason to step up!
Just found my first abandoned mine shaft, pretty cool.
I haven't found any near surface coal or iron, so I'm making tons of charcoal. Tunneled down a bit when I hit the mineshaft just at the end. Looks like they tunneled into a lava pocket and some gravel collapsed the roof.... ooops... My profit, found some iron finally, and they left behind some cart tracks, score!
Flying in creative mode, then switching to survival WHILE flying will allow you to continue flying, but when you land on anything, no matter how careful you are, you die instantly. Reproducable, not practical though.

How do you switch between the two again? I looked in my world saved folder, and couldn't find anything to change.
Anyone with arachnophobia, don't even bother. If you see a passage blocked by webs, just seal it up and go someplace else.
Otherwise, the abandonded mine I found is huge and has many levels, random chests here and there.
Can't hold down right click to spam stuff anymore, have to keep clicking, like to make a gravel tower to mine flint. Same goes for arrows, if you don't hold down the button, and click fast, the arrow falls at your feet and does nothing. Frantic first encounter with a skeletong dungeon there.
FOR ALL PEOPLE WHO CANT PLAY, ITS BECAUSE THE JAR IS CORRUPT! IF IT SAYS UPDATING DONE...OPEN THE 1.8 JAR IN WINRAR, GO TO TOOLS, CLICK REPAIR ARCHIVE, CLICK OK, THEN RENAME AND PLACE THE REBUILT.MINECRAFT.JAR INTO YOUR BIN FOLDER!!!

It works "decent" on my iMac.
I saw what you did there
