♣ POTTERMORE The Road So Far: Book 1

For y’all hardcore fans of the Harry Potter series, I’m sure you may have signed yourself up into this. For those who haven’t, I’m sure you at least may have heard of this since last year. Me, not so much. In fact, I just figured out about Pottermore after one of my Facebook friends posted on his timeline that he just got sorted into Gryffindor. That’s half a month ago (yes, I’m so out of date). As always, I got interested in anything about Hogwarts house sorting so I went check that out. Turned out, Pottermore was far more than just Hogwarts house sorting.

Pottermore is a website by J. K. Rowling, developed by TH_NK and partnered by Sony. The website, according to Rowling, will serve as a permanent online home for the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Registration for the limited beta release began on 31 July 2011 (the birthday of both Rowling and her character Harry Potter) for the first one million fans, as beta testers, to complete “The Magical Quill” challenge and register. Pottermore finally opened to public on 14 April 2012. Thus far the interactive experience is only available for Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, with the other books to come on undisclosed dates.

Now take a deep breath because I’m going to share you a long story about my experience on Pottermore so far. You may find some fundamental tips for beginners along the way, so stay tune (and beware of SPOILER). For those of you who are not even into it, I guess it’s about time you consider to stop reading my post :DD
