I missed out on a lot of raids

I don't play WoW anymore (I started when the Wrath of the Lich King launched, quit about 6 months later) , but I have a question because I might come back.
1) I remember skipping out on most of the old dungeons and raids because I was rushing to get to Lvl 80 as fast as possible.
Has Blizzard done anything to make finding groups for the old content easier?

The LFG system, matches your role up with other random pug players across your entire battlegroup then teleports you into a dungeon in a prearranged party. Think the dungeons available are respective to level, from memory. Stopped playing about a month ago.
Kinda takes the fun out of meeting at a Stone and heading in on your own steam but it is effective.
I played level 15 to 61 now on my new character and did all Dungeons and finished them, the instant multi realm group search is so easy, start a new character and get groups within 10 minutes (PUG) You finally get to see all those great instances.
Keep in mind that the old level 60 Dungeons are actually hard and that most PUG's fail misserably if none is around to tell them the tactics. Or some don't listen.
Best MMO experiences : EQ(PvE), DAoC(PvP), WoW(total package) LOTRO (worldfeel) GW2 (Artstyle and animations and worlddesign) SWTOR (Story immersion) TSW (story) ESO (character advancement)
For 5 man dungeons yes. There is now a "Looking for Dungeon" feature that is actually quite awesome. It works the same way the Battleground queue works. You select what you want to do (level permitting), or random, and queue up. Depending on the role you choose (tank, healer, dps), you wait a few minutes then get teleported directly to the entrance of the instance. Once completed, you're teleported right back to where you left.
As for raids, no. There is an updated LFG feature for raids, but in my experience it isn't used much, and it's the same old "LFM for 25 Uld" messages in chat. The biggest problem is the only raid worth doing now is ICC, and maybe ToC. Everything else has horrible drops when compared to the badge gear you'll get by running 5 mans for weeks. It's pretty sad. I wish they'd just increase the difficulties of these raids to ICC equivalent and update the drops the same way. My wife and I actually left when we started doing ICC, because we just got so bored with doing it over and over again, and nothing else was every being run, or even needed.
