With over 6 million units sold, ArenaNet has created a huge community of players who are eager to hear about what's next and what's changing. What are you favorite sites to get Guild Wars news from (GW1 and GW2)? Are there blogs or twitter accounts you follow that offer GW news? Is your guild site the first place you go to find out what's really going on?
Post a link if you can and a description of why you use the site or find it relevant. If your favorite news site is not in English include it anyway. Afterall, GW is an international sensation that speaks many languages.
I'm not going to try to make an exhaustive list myself; so, I'm counting on you to help fill in whatever sites I miss. This topic is for News and Information sites, not build or suggestion sites. i might start a topic for those things later (or you can).

Obviously, the original, official site is a great source of information. It should be where we all start looking for official news; but, it is sometimes behind various game industry sites in posting information.
This site looks great and offers more than news and marketing info. Unfortunately, some of the entries are quite old and not managed. [show less]
