So
POTTERMORE has been announced.
We've been waiting about a week for JK Rowling to announce what this special new thing was. Was it a book? Was it a book? And more importantly, was it a book?
It's not a book.
BUT, it sounds kind of cool anyway. It's super vague but what is understood that it's like an interactive walk through the story with a special character you create. He or she will get sorted, go through classes, get points, and follow Harry through the story. That is what I understand so far.
from
The Guardian
Starting with the first novel in the series, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Pottermore will allow its users to navigate their way through the story, with all-new illustrations and interactive "moments". Users start out by choosing a magical username, and as they move through the chapters of the book they will be sorted into houses – Rowling herself has written a "vast pool" of questions to direct users to their correct home – choose wands, shop on Diagon Alley and experience life at Hogwarts, just like Harry. Points can be won for houses by casting spells and mixing potions, users will be able to comment and add their own drawings and content – and Rowling herself will be dropping in "as a normal punter" now and then.
"If you are not sorted into Gryffindor, if you go into one of the other three houses, you will effectively get an extra quarter of a chapter. You will go off into your own common room, meet your own prefect, and find out what the true nature of the house is. In the main novel you only see the houses through the eyes of the heroes. So it's not a terrible thing to be in Slytherin," said the author, who admitted it was "a little frightening" how easily she slipped back into writing about Potter. "It's exactly like an ex-boyfriend ... I've never cried for a man as I cried for Harry Potter. Now we're casually dating and we have been for two years."
I am pretty excited, coming from someone who used to shamelessly roleplay on a Harry Potter MUSH.

In the meantime we can entertain outselves with Academagia.
I'll lie to get into Slytherin
sorry
you're hufflepuff
HUFFLEPUFF
Dammit
But he was a loyal hufflepuff 'friend'.
Because it sounds cool but in the example I read she said one of them would focus on how the Dursleys met (I assume it was at the British equivalent of a clan rally.) and frankly I don't think a single person in the workd cares how two child abusers met and fell in love due to shared bigotry.
then you go off and bang a Gryffindor or Slytherin (The MBA students of Hogwarts)
