Wow, 11 Million WoW Players

Blizzard Entertainment announces that World of Warcraft has passed another threshold, and Blizzard's MMORPG now boasts over 11 million subscribers worldwide. This means if the game was a state, it would be the eighth largest in the US, larger than Michigan, or Georgia. If WoW were a country, it would have the 75th largest population in the world, larger than Belgium, Portugal, or the Czech Republic. The announcement is accompanied by a job offer: "To keep pace with the continued growth of World of Warcraft as well as development on other Blizzard Entertainment games, the company is currently hiring for numerous open positions.
