Incgamers recently reported that Blizzard has two new job postings up which point in the direction of a new IP. Don't take my word for it though, read it yourself:
"Blizzard Entertainment is seeking an experienced gameplay engineer to focus on game rules systems for an unannounced title. This is your chance to get in on the ground floor of a dynamic and focused team working on a brand new project. Blizzard Entertainment offers a fun, creative, and technically challenging environment with excellent compensation and a full range of benefits."
Of course, we already heard word of this new project last year at the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational, but it's nice to see proof that the project is obviously going forward. I assume the project will probably be PC-based, but I can't help but fantasize about the idea of them considering something completely different from anything they've done before. What would you like to see them take on?

But it could be something entirely different.
Also, they bought a console developer (a studio) at one point not too far in the past and I guess they've said they don't expect the new MMO to cannibalize the WoW user base -- leading to speculation that it is a console MMO.
