There&#8217;s a lot of experimenting I&#8217;d like\u00c2\u00a0to do with the site, from basic formatting to integration with Facebook \/ Twitter \/ YouTube \/ iPhone, so apologies if there are weird glitches here and there while I work through it.<\/p>\n<p>As for Blizzcon, that starts in about 9 hours, with opening ceremonies at 11AM, followed by a Diablo 3 panel at noon and a WoW dungeons \/ raids panel at 1:30. I wouldn&#8217;t expect much out of the opening ceremonies &#8212; they&#8217;ll show the latest trailers and cinematics on the giant screen in ear-shattering surround sound &#8212; but they&#8217;ll probably save any major announcements for the individual panels.<\/p>\n<p>I keep joking about last year&#8217;s show, when Blizzard announced the huge WoW stats overhaul (that finally took place a week ago with the 4.0.1 patch), and the crowd kept gasping the whole way through. It&#8217;s hard to expect anything on that level this year, but I&#8217;m holding out hope that if they have any blockbuster stuff going down, it&#8217;ll be in the Diablo 3 camp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been incredibly neglectful of updating this site, something that will probably change in the coming weeks as Rock Band 3, WoW: Cataclysm and a number of other big holiday [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[24,13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-355","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-blizzcon-2010","category-world-of-warcraft"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=355"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":445,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/355\/revisions\/445"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=355"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=355"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.bytica.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=355"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
