Many quests for rep with The Consortium, including a repeatable item turn-in from Zaxxis mobs at The Heap (south of Area 52).
If you are allied with The Scryers wait until you are lvl 68 before you do quests that require killing blood elves so that you can pair it with the repeatable quest for sunfury signets.
Flightpaths are at Area 52 and Stormspire.
Eco-dome midrealm and Kirin'var village have quest hubs with some very fast quests for easy XP.
There is a bank at Area 52.
Many good places to gather motes of mana.

I've created a file, for those that do not want to alt-tab out of Warcraft for each quest (or cant in my case, with 512 MB of RAM) to our beloved wowhead.com. :)
This is basically a compilation of information off of Wowhead and the comments of posters. The quests are generally in order, but it may have a typo, mistake, or incorrect x, y locations, etc. Its not based on reputation, but is purely a leveling/quest grinding guide that I decided to do for myself and my brother. Right now, unfortunately, it is Alliance only based (I've got no level 60 Horde characters).
Some of the references in the file are to 'soloability'. This is totally class/talent/gear based, so I would not rely on it. However, if I comment on the soloability of a target, it probably means its elite or difficult.
The Series X# quests are to be completed in order.
If a quest is listed as 'Synch', it just means to watch out for the quests above or below the one marked as such, as they can be very, very easily combined together or interact with each other.
I have completed it for all the zones and all major non-group, non-elite, non-faction based quests. I'd appreciate any bumps in ratings, and also any questions, corrections, or feedback can be directed to [email protected].
Last but not least, you can use GoogleDocs to read the XLS file, if you dont have Microsoft Office. Or, just use Google to find a 'free XLS reader'.
Enjoy.
Home to the dungeon "Tempest Keep" which is a 4 wing dungeon, with one of them being a Raid wing which is rumored to require 25 players.
