Pottermore Revealed



5 minutes ago the announcement from J K Rowling has been revealed.  Pottermore is a place for a "unique" reading experience.  It seems it's part socially interactive, part HP encyclopedia, part place to read the Harry Potter novels.  Best of all it is free (we're not sure if the new e-book editions of HP are free though).  Registration starts July 31st and it is fully open to the public in October.  We still have questions about this of course, but as we learn the answers to them we'll let you know! Click here for screenshots from the site! A press release for the announcement says:


In the new website, the storyline will be brought to life with sumptuous newly-commissioned illustrations and interactive ‘Moments’ through which you can navigate, starting with the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s (Sorcerer’s) Stone. On entering, you choose a magic username and begin your experience. As you move through the chapters, you can read and share exclusive writing from J.K. Rowling, and, just as Harry joins Hogwarts, so can you. You visit Diagon Alley, get sorted into a house, cast spells and mix potions to help your house compete for the House Cup.
