Pottermore was J.K. Rowling’s new project to digitize the entire Harry Potter saga in eBook Format. Recently Google Checkout was selected as the payment option of choice to purchased content. Not only will the books be digitized, but turned into a large scale fully interactive experience that will allow the user to firmly immerse themselves in the Hogwarts world. The new project is not set to launch until October and you can get early Beta Access now!
The Beta program is entitled Find the Magic Quill and is a fairly straightforward trivia contest. Starting this week you can answer a new question posted on the website everyday. The clues will relate to one of the Harry Potter Books. So Monday’s question related to Book 1 and Tuesday will relate to Chamber of Secrets.
The question will be posted randomly, so make sure to visit often. The first few to answer the question right will be in the running. If you are one of lucky ones you will receive an automatic email from Pottermore giving you the ability to register a new account.
