The next step towards Geekdom

I downloaded a ten day trail of....World of Warcraft.  I don't know what I'm doing in the game, except killing some miners, workers and vermin.  Parts of it I'm kind of digging.  It's kind of neat to see hundreds of people running around doing stuff.  On the flip side I'm not sure if it's any better than Oblivion.  I need to figure out some multiplayer aspect of it and see how that goes. 

I'm going to do some homework for the next few days, see if it's worth investing in.  I'm off to scroll through the WoW forums,
