In case you haven't heard, the Blizzcon website went live today:

BlizzCon is a celebration of the Warcraft, StarCraft, and Diablo franchises and the players who have helped make them so popular around the world. We invite you to join us for an exciting weekend of gaming and socializing with your fellow Blizzard gamers and developers.

Mark the special days on your calendar!

Ticket Sales -- July 21

Blizzcon -- October 28-29 I almost forgot! Don't you forget now that I am reminding us both. Tomorrow is Patch day, the big 1.6.0. Here is my favorite so far : There is a new option upon the login screen. If you click the "Remember Name" checkbox on the left side of the screen, the game will automatically fill in your account name when it starts up. You can read about tomorrow's patch here.
