Oh. my. GOD.

Basically, people are beginning to think that there's the possibility of an official multiplayer TES game. It'd be awesome if it ended up as Oblivion. Anyway, Zenimax Media registered ElderScrollsOnline.com back in August, and Bethesda have received a $300 million investment from an outside company. Mmmm, I hope it's PlayNC or ArenaNet or summ't.

It's a bit old, this is from November, but nobody seems to care so I'm going to MAKE YOU CARE

Here's what UESPWiki said:

Online Elder Scrolls? — November 2nd, 2007

Over the past few months, there have been quite a few rumors about the Elder Scrolls series going online. These were started when ZeniMax Media, Bethesda's parent company formed a new division, ZeniMax Online Studios headed by Matt Firor, a developer with experience in the MMO field. Then, on October 25, Bethesda received a large $300 Million investment from an outside firm. Now it has come to light that ZeniMax Media registered ElderScrollsOnline.com back in mid August. Still, this is speculation, but it definitely appears that Bethesda and ZeniMax are cooking something. Here's the 'whois' lookup confirming the domain purchase

There's already a mod for Oblivion to make multiplayer work. Sure, you can only play with one other person, but that is only for the time being. Only one person is working on it, and he is improving it, slowly but surely. ^^
