  • World of Warcraft Satire: The Guild

    While browsing YouTube as I typically do when I’m bored in the evenings, I found The Guild. The show focuses on “Codex”, a female WoW addict and her guild’s in and out of game interactions.

  • Code Monkey: Software Developer Theme Song a-la World of Warcraft

    I just found this video over at the Geekend blog at Tech Republic. The song is by Jonathan Coulton, a rocker that seems to understand the life of a love-struck code monkey. I headed over to his site and found that I like a lot of his stuff. He’s got a great sound and his…

  • World of Warcraft Addiction

    This video – while one would first like to chuckle at the thought of a World of Warcraft addiction – speaks volumes to what is a reality for many who play the game. I, for a time, was spiraling down towards addiction to the game when it was first released…if I had not been married…

  • WoW UI Mod: FuBar

    When I played World of Warcraft before my hiatus, TitanPanel was all the rage. What did it do? Well, it put this sexy little bar at the top of your UI with a lot of useful information that would otherwise have taken up a large area on the screen with the default UI. Titan Panel…

  • A Guide to Druid Forms

    Over my time off and on World of Warcraft, I’ve seen a number of questions regarding Druid Forms.

Here are the words of wisdom: Amazing descriptions…

  • Wowhead, The New ThottBot

    If you are a fan of World of Warcraft, there’s a high probability that you have found yourself at Thottbot – a search engine for WoW data – a time or two. My wife and I have used that as a resource for quite some time when trying to find the optimal monster to kill…

  • World of Warcraft 2.0: Macros

    [[innerindex]] Introduction So, my retirement from World of Warcraft is over. I’ve been away for the better part of a year but with the impending Burning Crusade expansion and my wife’s continual discussion about WoW with one of her co-workers has given me the longing to wtfpwn some n00bs.

  • WoW Guilds: Relationship Advice

    World of Warcraft is a great gaming passtime, guilds can be a blast and assist in many areas of your playstyle. Its pretty funny to see the responses, however, when a fellow guild member decides to ask for real life advice in a heavily game-centered environment.
