Click an owl and it will take you to: http://www.youtube.com/JKRowlingAnnounces

You can't click anything on the YouTube site though, other than the bits at the top.. which is odd? :P



JK Rowling launches 'mystery' website

Harry Potter author JK Rowling has launched a website to promote a secretive new project.

The site, pottermore.com, features a holding page with two owls which links to a YouTube page featuring a countdown to a 23 June announcement.

"The owls are gathering... find out why soon," it adds.

Her spokeswoman said the project was "not a new book" and was not "directly related" to the final Potter film which is due out on 15 July.

"We are not saying anything more at the moment," she added.

Producers of fan site The Leaky Cauldron said they had seen a preview of the Pottermore project, describing it as "breathtaking".

Thoughts and ideas? :)

Congratulations, you've found the last ingredient (batch of nettles)! PM HabboxComps straight away and tell her where all the ingredients are! Just in case you've forgotten, you can just copy and paste this: Eye of Newt in the 'Socks' thread, sock of a tramp in the 'The Office' thread, head of a cockroach in the chelsea manager thread and batch of nettles in the Pottermore thread. Well done! It's going to take a while to make the potion. HabboxComps estimates it as the 31st July so check the Community Notice Board that date to find out who won xxMattGxx's reward!

Sorry for the bump but I believe the emails have been sent for the (One million I think) people who are going to be given early access to help finish the site. I'm just wondering if anyone from here has been given early access. I have been woo :)

[wixard]

me too but apparently it was only under 13s and people who registered on day 1 and 2

[Stephen]

im sure not all emails have been sent out. Arent they doing it in stages sort of thing? Like days 1 and 2 first then 3 and 4 or whaetver

[FlyingJesus]

Why are the under 13s getting first access they're not the ones who quite literally grew up with the books :S

[Jordan]

Oh right I can't remember when I registered and I'm 15 soo.

We have to wait till they send us a Welcome email before we are allowed in. I and I am sure others will post some screenshots as and when!

[wixard]

ehhh from a forum i go on, some guy is claiming that the first few contacted will be able to login on 17th of august

[Jordan]

Are we the first few? Not long anyway.

[RyRy]

Why are the under 13s getting first access they're not the ones who quite literally grew up with the books :S

Because that way they can milk them for money. You of all people should know how naive and thick the youngens are. ;)

[Stephen]

[buttons]

[Nikki]
