BlizzCon 2008 coverage part 1

As a World of Warcraft player I am looking forward to Blizzard's BlizzCon 2008. I will link to almost every update I can find online! Hope you enjoy it like I will!

Let's start with podcasts:

• Outlandish Podcast have their first BlizzCon Episode: BlizzCon Part 1
• The Instance Podcast have a pre-BlizzCon episode as well.

And now, some pre-BlizzCon news:

• Diablo 3, Starcraft 2 and Wrath of the Lich King will be playable at BlizzCon.
• BlizzCon swag bag content.

WoW Radio will also offer free and live streaming of the BlizzCon keynotes. But with our unstable Internet (Thanks STC!!!) listening to a live stream might not be the best choice for most players in Saudi Arabia. Hopefully WoW Radio will offer downloadable content as well. I will post the links as I find them.
