definitely some inaccurate information under the zerg timings (ie. the second point). i wouldn't trust any of this information except for obvious points and timings that have been tested already.

I can assure you 4, 6, 7, 8 are 100% true
Don't forget to get everyone you know to play HOTS so this game we love called Starcraft will live on. Every little bit helps. ^^

Hive and spire has the same build time so if you start them both at the same time, you can upgrade to greater spire right away.

Make corruptors when your greater spire is halfway complete. When they pop you can morph them into broodlords right away.

One thing I do that makes it easy for me is in PvZ when I 9 pylon at ramp in main, I rally my 8th probe to one of the mineral patches closer to the ramp and select it as it finishes. Right after it drops off its first mined minerals to the nexus, I move him to the ramp and it will arrive to the pylon location right when you have 100 minerals. The mineral patch I rally to depends on the map as distances differ, and some maps like backwater or tal', I have to send a probe sooner. Sorry that this is longer than one sentence but hope its helpful. Makes it easier to not have to worry about selecting the right probe at the right time.
