1) use wowhead's talent calc. It's closer to this site, loads a lot faster, and fits on-screen better.
2) tell us why you chose what talents you chose, and what rotation you are going to use. What sets it apart from the "norm?" If it is the norm, why are you posting?

The glyphs are a new feature with MMO, that doesn't change the fact that wowhead does in fact load faster. I concede on that point.
However, the other point still stands - anyone can click buttons on a talent calc and link them, it doesn't demonstrate knowledge of the class or really give us much insight as to why you chose what you chose. My mother could do that, and she doesn't even play the game or know anything about it. Thus, you need to do more than just post a build and say "is it good?" or "this will pwn!" You need to qualify it with reasons why you chose what you chose.
Why are you this deep in unholy but still using oblit? Why are you spending 10 points on buffing the damage of Icy Touch, which you will only use once every 20 seconds (which 7 of those would also buff HB and FS if you go deeper in frost), when you could instead spend those 13 points (including those in annihilation) going deeper in unholy to get an extra disease and then an attack that will hit just as hard as oblit, but doesn't require all those points to not consume diseases? Why are you going for an oblit build without getting Guile of Gorefiend or Might of Mograine?
You spent so many talent points buffing abilities BESIDES obliterate, and yet you want to OB spam. Why? Qualify your posts, so you don't look like a 3-year-old who's proud of using the potty, but rather like an intelligent individual providing a solid theory.

Why do you need to convert the Frost and Unholy runes from obliterate into death runes if you're just going to use them on obliterate? (note: the blood runes, if death runes, will convert back to blood runes after using obliterate, even if you have DRM).
I also want to know why you didn't just go down and get blood of the north in frost, and then get Rime and Guile of Gorefiend to buff Obliterate further. At a 20% base crit chance, you'd go from 29% with just Subversion to 44% with Rime, and then Guile of Gorefiend would increase your overall damage from obliterate by another 19.8% with the additional damage on crit.
Your unholy tree looks almost like it's part of a DW spec, even though you're using a 2-hander. In terms of DPS increase, BcB > Impurity > Necrosis, and Corpse Explosion is just crap. Although I guess you did need the points to get further, you still pretty much picked up a lot of DPS filler in unholy without getting the meat down at the bottom, and then in frost you picked up the talents that are filler unless you get the skills deeper in the tree.
My last post should have been enough to show I actually looked at your build, but just looking at it doesn't automatically make me think you're Einstein. I'd also recommend against assuming this forum is full of psychics - we don't know what you're thinking when you make something.

If you're going that far into the Unholy tree, why not save the points you're wasting to get Annihilation and get Scourge Strike instead? Hits just as hard...
Also, as pointed out by others, there's no point in having DRM if you're going to be spamming Obliterate - DRM is really so you can use Obliterate to build Death Runes to spam Heart Strike.
