Pottermore...Coming Soon!


Have you heard? J.K. Rowling has a mysterious new website (http://www.pottermore.com/)...
there's not much there at the moment except a cryptic "Coming Soon."

For a little more info, check out J.K. Rowling's YouTube announcement page at
http://www.youtube.com/user/JKRowlingAnnounces. For now, it only reads "The owls are gathering...Find out why soon," and features a clock counting down the seconds until this Thursday, June 23. What does it all mean? Rowling's representatives have said the site is not about " a new book" and "not directly related" to the upcoming film. So what's it all about? There are a lot of possible ideas floating around out there...what do you think it's all about?
