Pottermore - Finally out of beta and open for registration
by Sam
Excuse me whilst I disappear from the face of the earth for a while, but Pottermore is finally open for registration and out of beta!
Pottermore Youtube
... the trailer that got me hooked ;-)
The clip on the right was that alerted me first to the existence of Pottermore! It was included in the last Harry Potter DVD I bought. 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2' and since I saw it for the first time I tried to get into it. Unfortunately I missed the beta and was not be able to register / apply for being a beta tester. But now, April 2012, Pottermore is finally open for everybody and I am in!
Follow me on my magical journey through the world of the 'boy who lived' and his friends ...

You need to start with the first chapter of the first book - but I tell you it is well worth it, there is so much new information and additional content to discover ...
Whilst you do this you can collect items, get a magical wand and brew potions, the more you explore the more doors open up to you and the more you enjoy this online experience.

It only takes a minute to sign up to Pottermore and you can connect there with me and we can do the magical journey together!

You are welcome, Katie, have fun! SY
Oh yes, huge Huge HUGE fan, I've heard of this and been biting my lip waiting. Thanks for the heads up. :) K
I'm happy for you. Have fun. I will avoid this as I have an addictive personality.
I've got to act like a muggle until summer comes, and then maybe I can take time to check out Pottermore. I think I'd easily get addicted :-) It looks great. I'd love to revisit the Harry Potter books in this way.
Have fun you two, perhaps we 'meet' there ;-)
