Hey guys…
Sorry to be quiet for about a month.
I got sick early in the semester and have been playing catch-up with the semester ever since.
I guess everybody knows by now that Pottermore decided to leave the site in Beta until further notice. And yes, I agree… they should have known what kind of traffic and volume the site was going to get. It’s truly hard to fathom that they were so woefully unprepared.
I’ll be back soon to do some re-reading. :)
See you then!

I hope you are feeling a bit better. I miss @TheRustCat and our reading (yes I know, lame but still) Spike and Cheri always say so when I mention it.
Pottermore. So – they listened? Well, they DID ask for feedback, I just hope they are not too cut up about the bombshell that exploded in their inbox when the posted the survey. As you say, it is hard to fathom how unprepared they were. How little they thought people would want to interact, my one thought is that they hoped to keep it child friendly and child safe.
I hope that something really positive will come out of their survey though, some rethinking and recreating. The site is visually stunning but woefully lacking in the one thing Potter fans thrive on – interactivity. I wish them well and look forward to seeing the revisions they make.
