Who's 999/1000 Exalted with Stormwind? OH THAT'S RIGHT, HONORATA IS. I also finished questing Loch Modan today, which means tomorrow: Wetlands!

For the record, I've finished/mostly finished the following 1-35 questing zones:
Azuremyst Isle (at level)
Bloodmyst Isle (at level)
Duskwood (at level, have most of Sven's quests left to complete if needed)
Dun Morogh
Elwynn Forest
Teldrassil
Westfall
Loch Modan

Left up:
Wetlands
Darkshore (the 2/3 of it I didn't do at level-ish)
Ashenvale
Redridge Mountains (minus the 6 quests or so I did today to get up to Exalted with Stormwind)

I've also, as you can tell from that page, begun doing the Timbermaw grind. I'm not entirely sure how I want to do this, since I'd like to do most of my at-level questing for the 50s in the Plaguelands (Argent Dawn rep yesssss), but I do really really really want the achievement They Love Me In That Tunnel because it is a great achievement name. Plus, I'd like to eventually get the Diplomat. The majority of the grind I did today was to 1. get to Unfriendly so I could head up to Moonglade to turn in a quest, and 2. finish up my last bubble of XP to ding 49. Eh. I'll figure it out, I suppose.

Also, SC and I ran two random dungeons (one wing of Mauradon and Sunken Temple) today after doing Zul'Farrak on purpose. My first satchel of helpful goods wasn't very helpful. (I don't need tanking gear, RDF!) But my second satchel had a pair of +24 strength plate boots in them and my face is pretty much stuck like this: *_____________* when I look at them.

I also got to pretend-tank the boss that sleeps the tank in Sunken Temple, except then the boss didn't sleep anybody, and I was kind of disappointed.

Honestly, taking the day to go back and do the 1-10 zone for all the races you didn't start as is hugely worth it if you want to improve your rep with the faction. You'll pick up several thousand reputation, and it doesn't take very long (You have a mount to overcome most of the running around time factor, and you'll one-shot everything. Sometimes, if you're me and have seal of command up, you'll one-shot three things at once).

Also, getting to Unfriendly with the Timbermaw takes literally doing the once quest Grazle gives you when you come into Felwood. Kill 18 dudes, at 20 rep apiece, and then get the turn-in rep. After which, the feathered headdresses will start dropping from the mobs in Southern Felwood. Getting to Honored definitely is not as hard as it used to be at 20 rep a pop for the Deadwood furbolgs.

I believe there's a wow_ladies here, but nobody really uses it. Otherwise, I haven't really seen anything.

I'd wondered about that, but I wasn't sure if you earned rep on low-level missions and I hadn't bothered to check yet. Good to know! :D And that'll actually tie in nicely with the fishing I've just started. I'll be in zones with low-level pools!

I did that Grazel mission, and then I went back for a (Horde-only, I think) one where you kill Overlord Ror for his paw, and while I was there I bumped into an elite, Ragepaw, which gave me a nice 100-rep bonus. Plus there's a couple of quests that start from drops and another questgiver up in the north. Shouldn't be too much trouble. :D

I think rep used to scale with level, so you wouldn't get (much) rep for going back and doing 1-10 zones as a high level character, but you definitely get full rep for doing it now.

I'm going up to the Plaguelands after I ding 50, I think? (Well, after I ding 50, get the Paladin specific quest up there that sends me back to Sunken Temple, and run Sunken Temple and the rest of the quests I have in there.) But before then, I think it's TIMBERMAW REP GRIND TIME.
