I was just wondering where and how players will be able to go to Draenor once the expansion goes live...
anybody with beta experience?

You automatically get a quest once the expansion goes live. It will send you through the Dark Portal.
The red portal is nonfunctional in-game. You cannot go through it normally. You only go through it in a cutscene which happens as part of the Draenor quest line.
Also, once you hit 90 and get put into the phase of Blasted Lands that has the red portal, this also renders the Dark Portal in Outland nonfunctional for you (from that point forward you have to use the HFP portal in cities to get back to Outland). If you talk to a bronze dragon NPC in blasted lands, she will phase BL back to the old version for you, but I'm not sure if this reenables the portal on the Draenor side for you. I'll have to test that.
Do you get the breadcrumb only in cities like previous launches or does it pop up if you're, say, already in blasted lands?
so Khadgar spawns in Orgrimmar and Stormwind as soon as WoD launches - we talk to him and then we get teleported to Tanaan Jungle. Is that correct?
If yes, where does Khadgar spawn? A screenshot would be awesome!

GUYS! this is important! where will people be waiting the minutes before WoD goes live? In Orgrimmar/Stormwind? In front of the Dark Portal? Why is no one concerned about this?!
You get the quest once it goes live, and it requires you to talk to Khadgar in Blasted Lands. There's a portal in the Drag that takes you there.
As soon as WoD activates, you'll get a breadcrumb quest to speak to Khadgar in Blasted Lands. Simply log out Standing / Flying in the middle of the Dark Portal crater, as soon as you game loads, simply talk to Khadgar, and you'll be given the cinematic and be sent on your merry (or ill-fated) way.
