I have updated my post about configuring Privoxy to clean up the ads on WorldOfWarcraft.com. The new user.filter removes most of the white blocks on the wow homepage that Privoxy left behind already.

Check out: Pickin’ on Series – We Do (The Stonecutters Theme).
Once the page loads, hit the play button in the upper right corner.
Following in a long line of re-captioned foreign language videos comes an amusing tale of World of Warcraft class balance.
Over the weekend, the countdown timer on Cryptic Studio’s homepage turned into a launch of the new Star Trek Online website. The gameplay plan for this seems pretty different from what Perpetual Entertainment had in mind. Instead of serving as a crewmember aboard a ship, you will be either a Federation or Klingon captain with [...]
The WotlK wiki has some details on activating shadows in the beta: http://wotlkwiki.info/index.php/Graphics_Upgrade
I did some quick cruising around and took a few screenshots with the new terrain shadows activated in the beta client. These shots are set to Medium (aka #2 of 6), which is “Full environmental and PC/NPC shadows, low-res, med-dist.”
