Today is the release of 3.0.2 and there's a landslide of info.

First off, start here because green is pretty: The 3.0.2 FAQ

Once you have your legs, you'll want to look at MMO Champion's excellent release announcement page, the full test realm patch notes (really long), and the MMO mirror of those notes.

There are major new features that you'll want to try out:

• Barbers (locations) for new hair styles
• A new profession: Inscription
• Completely re-designed talents! Check patch notes and talent calculators for details (MMO Champion, Wowhead, Blizzard)

Welcome to 3.0.2, the patch that contains nearly all of the code changes required for Wrath of the Lich King. You are, for all intents and purposes, playing the expansion as of tonight, modulo the ability to level to 80 or go to Northrend. I know I'm going to have a long night of re-speccing and deciding if I'm going to bother with inscription or not.... sigh.

The 3-Man Guide to Blackrock Depths (BRD) is intended for World of Warcraft groups that want to follow in the footsteps of Saturnalia, doing old-world content at appropriate level. If you're 70 then you can probably solo BRD (depending on class and spec), but if you're a group of 3 with an average party level of around 55, you can still do it if you know how. This guide will teach you.

Saturnalia took on the 3.0 PTR today, in our usual 3-man grouping style. We are all 65, so we decided to do Underbog which was a little low for us, hopefully counteracting the fact that we all had UI brokenness due to the loss of settings and mods. It was really enlightening, and we can see that some things are likely to change. Here's how it went.
