You might not know it, but 38 Studios has a pretty awesome WoW tool available called Azeroth Advisor. It’s a free, personalized newsletter that is customized for your character, and can help guide you through World of Warcraft. It just got even better with some more (open beta) features: Every character now has a homepage, complete with stats and charts, a newsletter archive, achievements list, and all of the quests you share with friends and guildmates. It also has a detailed Connections manager that lets you assign security settings for friends and guildmates, even letting them see your character data. Again, it’s free, so check it out if you play WoW.
