WoW the Next "Golf"?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the can-i-use-my-employees-as-gold-farmers-then dept.

TheGrapeApe writes "1up has an article about the possibility of World of Warcraft becoming the next "Golf": A place where friends, acquaintances, and perhaps even business partners will meet up to "talk shop" and swap stories. Personally, I can't wait until I have my next job interview in the Deadmines. " I demand extra healing and mana pots from all my employees.

  1. Can we not steal more links from other site? by Swift+Kick · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    This story was on Fark yesterday. I mean, come on....
    Fark links the story on ExtremeTech by the same author:

    http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,1558,1922776 ,00.asp?kc=ETRSS02129TX1K0000532

    and TheGrapeApe is using the 1Up link:

    http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3147826

    They're the same exact story.

    I have an idea: to make /.'s editors' lives easier, why don't you just use a crawler and every hour, you copy one of the Fark/Joystiq/Kotaku/Gizmodo/Engadget links? That way, you still have some 'news', and they might actually be a little less behind.
