"Pottermore has been a really great way to give back to the Harry Potter readership, who made the books such a big success. I am still receiving countless, a huge amount of mail - I thought it would really drop off by now. Stories, drawings, suggestions I write prequels, sequels, every week. "This site is just a fantastic way for all that fan creativity to continue. It’s been an amazing experience for me to be able to be creative in this medium that iddn’t exist back in 1990 when I had the idea for the books. And it will be a wonderful way to introduce the digital generation to the books. "It’s just been a phenomenally exciting project. We’v been working on it for a couple of years and I think it’s miraculous that so few clever fans twigged to what we were up to. A few did and they were really nice about not giving us away early. It’s just been a very exciting project to work on with a great team." On Sorting:
"The Sorting was some of the best fun I’ve had on this project. I was writing the potter books for sixteen years and during that time I had just had this real sense of where people belonged, in what house they belonged. It was something I was unconsciously doing a lot of the time when I met people. "So, developing these vast pool of questions that are randomly selected for a user - so you wont get the same questions as your friend necessarily - I thought it was quite important that people didn’t get to second guess what meant Gryffindor, for example. But the exciting thing for me is that if you’re not sorted into Gryffindor, if you’re sorted into one of the other three houses you will effectively get an extra quarter chapter because you will go off to your on common room. If you are sorted into Gyrffindor you just follow Harry. But if you’re sorted into Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw or Slytherin, you go to your own common room, you meet your own prefect, who will tell you about famous people who were in your house and what the true nature of your house is. "In the main narrative you only ever see the other houses through the eyes of the three, my three heroes. What I’m basically saying is that it’s not a terrible thing to be in Slytherin. And in fact I have always seen Gryffindor and Slytherin as the two closest houses. I think that Harry himself could have goneeither way very easily. I don’t think it’s very guessable. Yo must be answering honestly. YOu just get one shot at this, it’s like a Mensa test, there’s no going back, you’ve got to do it properly the first time. "We’ve tested this out. I tested it on my family and everyone was where I thought they would be, and when the team did it, you [to Tarek Nseri of TH_NK] said most people were in Ravenclaw. The only two people who were in Slytherin were dressed all in black. So it works."
Q: How did the idea come about, and how much new material is there?
"I would say that I have had more than half of the new material already written - and I’ve also generated some new content, particularly the introduction to the houses. That was a fun opportunity to go back, rethink how it might have been if Harry followed a different course. So I’ve generated quite a lot. "[The idea] came out of a discussion between us, between Neil [Blair] and myself. We knew there was a big demand for the eBooks but I wanted - if it was going to be done I wanted it to be more than that. Obviously we’d had a lot of requests for all sorts of games and online interactive games and so forth. I wanted to pull it back to reading. I wanted to pull it back to the literary experience, the story experience, and this is what emerged from those discussions. So we started working on this seriously a couple of years ago." Q: Will there ever be a printed encyclopedia?
"Will there ever be a book, I don’t know at the moment. The world has kind of outstripped me in the sense that back in 1998 I generated a lot more material than would ever be put in the books. It was simply ridiculous that anyone - to me at the time, I thought, who would ever want to know the significance of these types of wand woods? This was all in my head. So the only way I could imagine I could get that material out there was in the form of a printed book. "Now, you can go and look and see what the significance of the wand wood once what you’ve got your wand. You have to read it all, but it’s such a rich experience to do it this way. "Will there ever be an encyclopedia? Possibly. I would say two things about the encyclopedia: firstly, I’ve always said and I stand by it, whenever I do do a printed encyclopedia I would like all the proceeds to go to charity. Back in 1998 I never dreamt I personally I would be in the position that I could set up a large charitable foundation and personally do things for charity, and I’ve done other charity books already. "The other thing is, this is free. You don’t have to buy anything to access what you’ve seen today. You don’t have to pay to get the extra material, you don’t hve to buy a single thing to go onto Pottermore and have the whole experience you’ve just seen. That was really important to me. This was about the give-back. The technology now existed to do something outside the books and the films for existing fans." Q: You have been quoted about how difficult it was to say goodbye to Harry Potter. This is a way of causing you to be able to keep your boyfriend a little longer?
"It’s exactly like an ex-boyfriend. It is true to say that finishing writing Harry, I’ve only ever cried in that way and as much ever in my life when my mother died. I’ve never cried for a man as I cried for Harry Potter, ever. So, we’re not casually dating, as you can see, and have been for two years now and I’ve been keeping that quiet. "It is surprising how easily I slip in and out of that world. I’ll be completely honest when I came to write out notes or when I generated new material which I have done in places, I just thought this is extraordinary how easily I slip in and out of it, that’s been wonderful. But I do have closure with Harry, and I think it’s important to say that I have no plans to write another novel. This has been an amazing way of staying in touch with that part of my life, but I am pretty sure I am done on the novel front. But it was fun while it lasted." Q [regarding Jo’s mail and whether this will reignite her post bag]
"I love the mail. Not all of the mail. I like 99% of the mail. "The books, it’s impossible to overstate what Harry Potter was to me. It completely changed my life. Creatively, I’ve loved it. It will never happen again to me anyway. It will happen again to someone else, there’ll be another series of books that’s as big. I adore my readers. I love my readers. Any writer would like to think that they will continue to be read. "I thought a question that would come earlier but that I am going to answer spontaneously now, is that print/ebook debate: It is my view you can’t hold back progress. EBooks are here, they are here to stay. Personally I love printed paper, but very very recently, later thatn a lot of people because I’m not very technologically adept, in fact it was this year for the first time that I downloaded eBooks. And it’s miraculous, for travel and for children particularly, to carry around a thousand books in your pocket on a small device is an extraordinary thing, so I feel great about taking harry potter into this new medium. But I still love a printed paper book; I think you can enjoy both." Q: Did you come up with the name Pottermore?
"I did. I’m quite proud of that. We had a lot of discussions about that but that was me."
Q: Can you talk about your decision to go directly to the consumers? I imagine Apple and Amazon are not happy.
"Well I can’t speak for anyone else. The decision was quite straightforward for me. Firstly It means that - I mean Harry Potter is obviously an international phenomenon and it means that we can now see that people everywhere are having the same experience at pretty much the same time. A large part of the fandom will be able to receive experience at exactly the same time, which was extremely appealing to me. "I’m phenomenally lucky in that I have the resources to do it myself and therefore I got to do it, I think, right. I think this is a fantastic and unique experience that I can afford in every sense. To take my time and find the right people - TH_NK have been extraordinary - to make this come alive. There was really no other way to do that, for the fans or for, than to just do it myself. Not everyone could do it, I appreciate that, but I think it was right for Harry Potter. It was right for Harry Potter because, Potter fandom was one of the first, I think ti’s fair to say, there was a massive online community and that was such fun for me as an author to be able to have direct contact with my fans, and I already had a direct presence online, I had my own web site already. So it didn’t feel like a massive onwards step. It was an extension of the already existing. Q: Can you talk more about what new content is on the site and what some of your favorite parts were?
"I’ve mentioned - I think my favorite things are the Sorting, which I loved writing, I think if you get into the other three houses apart from Gryffindor, you do end up with an extra bit of that chapter in Philosopher’s Stone. That was great to write. And then the wands, I go into ridiculous detail about the wandwoods, and what the cores mean, and why it might have chosen you and every detail on wands and some of that I already had in long form and some of it I wrote anew. "The background on Professor McGonagall, I’ve had for years and years and years, and I think I always thought it would have somehow found its way into the story and it just never happened. Harry and Professor McGonagall just never had an interaction or a conversation where that would plausibly come out, so I was left with this life story of this character I liked so much and nowhere to put it. Now I’ve got somewhere to put it. That was so satisfying." Q: How much is there?
"Oh god, I don’t know. Lots. There’s lots. 18,000 words at launch but I’m adding to it. I’m still digging up boxes and I will write more as well as we hit subsequent books. In fact I’ve already given material on the other six books. We’ve been working on this for about two years so this has been int the works quite a long time."
Q: Can I ask about Quidditch?
"I don’t think I’ve given all the stuff on Quidditch yet. Men always ask me about Quidditch because the number of, and I love geeky people so I do not say this in a pejorative way, but the number of geeky men who have come up to me to argue with me about Quidditch - I’d be a lot richer if I had a quid for every one. They just think it’s illogical. But it’s not illogical and I had a speech by Dumbledore in the first book that never made it in explaining why Quidditch is not illogical, so at some point I will put that on the site. Thank you for reminding me."

Апдейт №3. Спасибо Спектру за перевод!
"Даже спустя тринадцать лет после выхода первой книги о Гарри Поттере я до сих пор изумляюсь и радуюсь реакции читателей. Несмотря на то, что седьмая книга и восьмой фильм уже закончены, я по-прежнему получаю сотни писем в неделю; поклонники Гарри остаются все такими же увлеченными и изобретательными, как раньше. Так что я хочу воспользоваться этой возможностью, чтобы сказать "Спасибо" <...> прекрасной, разнообразной и лояльной читательской аудитории. Хочу с радостью заявить вам, что сейчас готова представить нечто уникальное - опыт онлайн-чтения, не похожий ни на какой другой. Он называется Pottermore. Это та же самая история, но с несколькими важнейшими добавлениями. Самое важное из них - вы. Чтение требует совместной работы воображения читателя и писателя, чтобы создать историю. Pottermore будет частично построен вами, читателями. Цифровое поколение сможет получить безопасный, уникальный опыт онлайн-чтения, построенного вокруг книг о Гарри Поттере. Pottermore будет местом, где фанаты любого возраста смогут делиться историями, участвовать в них и открывать для себя заново. Кроме того, только там можно будет приобрести эксклюзивные аудиокниги, а также, впервые в истории - электронные издания "Гарри Поттера". Я тоже присоединюсь, потому что буду делиться дополнительной информацией о мире "Гарри Поттера", которую держала при себе многие годы. Pottermore откроется для всех в октябре. Некоторые везунчики смогут присоединиться раньше и помочь с работой. Просто следуйте за совой. Удачи".
Апдейт №2. Пресс-релиз (на английском):
читать дальшеJ.K. Rowling today, Thursday 23rd June, answered mounting speculation about the nature of her new project and announced Pottermore, a unique and free-to-use website which builds an exciting online experience around the reading of her hugely successful Harry Potter books, and is partnered by Sony.
The announcement today was heralded by the revealing of the website’s name via an online search for its letters, and a ‘coming soon’ holding page which received over a million visits within 36 hours of launching.
For this groundbreaking collaborative project, J.K. Rowling has written extensive new material about the characters, places and objects in the much-loved stories, which will inform, inspire and entertain readers as they journey through the storylines of the books. Pottermore will later incorporate an online shop where people can purchase exclusively the long-awaited Harry Potter eBooks, in partnership with J.K. Rowling’s publishers worldwide, and is ultimately intended to become an online reading experience, extending the relevance of Harry Potter to new generations of readers, while still appealing to existing fans. As the Pottermore Shop develops, it is intended that it should include further products designed specifically for Harry Potter fans, offering a potential outlet for Sony products and services related to Pottermore. In keeping with Harry Potter’s international appeal, the site will launch in English, French, Italian, German and Spanish, with more languages to follow.
In the new website, the storyline will be brought to life with sumptuous newly-commissioned illustrations and interactive ‘Moments’ through which you can navigate, starting with the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s (Sorcerer’s) Stone. On entering, you choose a magic username and begin your experience. As you move through the chapters, you can read and share exclusive writing from J.K. Rowling, and, just as Harry joins Hogwarts, so can you. You visit Diagon Alley, get sorted into a house, cast spells and mix potions to help your house compete for the House Cup.
At a press conference at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, Rowling revealed some key features of the website. In an announcement which will thrill fans, she described how she has brought to life both the Sorting Hat and Ollivanders experiences from her books for the first time on Pottermore, by revealing the questions asked by the Sorting Hat - which places newcomers into their Hogwarts houses according to their characteristics - and the magic behind the Wand Chooser – which finds the right wand for each user from over 33,000 possible combinations. She also revealed glimpses of the new information she has provided on some of the best-loved characters.
J.K. Rowling’s announcement on YouTube and sony.com today revealed that Pottermore (along with the Pottermore Shop) will be open to all users in October 2011. From today, 23rd June, fans can submit their email addresses on Pottermore.com in order to be contacted by the site following the opening of registration on 31st July, Harry’s birthday. Also on that date, an online challenge will be launched, whereby the first million people to complete their registration will gain early entry into the website, and help put final touches to the experience.
J.K. Rowling commented,
“I wanted to give something back to the fans that have followed Harry so devotedly over the years, and to bring the stories to a new digital generation. I hope fans and those new to Harry will have as much fun helping to shape Pottermore as I have. Just as I have contributed to the website, everyone else will be able to join in by submitting their own comments, drawings and other content in a safe and friendly environment – Pottermore has been designed as a place to share the stories with your friends as you journey through the site.”
Pottermore has been made possible with the support and partnership of Sony.
Sir Howard Stringer, Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President of Sony Corporation, commented:
“Sony's association with J.K. Rowling's Pottermore brings together one of the world’s most innovative brands with the most successful book series in history, in a pioneering partnership that will help shape the future of story-telling. We are proud to be a part of it, both at this momentous announcement, and as we collaborate on its development over the coming years.”
On Sony’s partnership of Pottermore, J.K. Rowling commented:
“As I think people know, I am very protective of Harry and have always been very selective with any new initiatives, but I am totally committed to making this partnership with Sony and this wonderful new website a success. There are many companies I could have worked with on this ultimate digital expression of Harry Potter’s universe, but it is Sony’s unique philosophy of creativity in harmony with technology that made them my first choice as main partner. The spirit behind Sony’s make.believe philosophy is one that rings true with Pottermore’s own values.”
The detailed creative execution has been led by TH_NK, a leading UK digital agency, under the supervision of J.K. Rowling and the Pottermore management team, in co-operation with Sony. J.K. Rowling’s publishers, Bloomsbury in the UK and Scholastic in the USA, as well as her international publishers worldwide, have been active supporters in the creation of pottermore.com and the Pottermore Shop. Warner Bros, the makers of the hugely successful Harry Potter film franchise, is also one of the partners who have worked to support the launch of Pottermore through a variety of marketing, promotional and other efforts, and will continue to collaborate as the project grows.
The storyline of the second book, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, will go live on the site in early 2012. The Pottermore Shop opens when the site opens to all in October, selling complete ranges of the eBooks and digital audiobooks in a selection of languages, exclusively.
Designed for fans of all ages, the website has been created with child safety in mind, employing best practice and compliance with internet codes of practice in the UK, Europe and USA, and elsewhere.

Апдейт №5. Еще раз спасибо Спектру за перевод!
На Pottermore будет информация о "Гарри Поттере", которую Роулинг накапливала годами. 1 миллион фанатов получит доступ к бета-версии сайта 31 июля, в день рождения Гарри. Для всех сайт откроется в октябре-2011. Роулинг написала 18 000 слов нового материала для Pottermore, но это лишь треть из запланированного. Роулинг сказала, что у нее с Гарри "неофициальные" отношения, хотя когда-то были серьезные. "Я не плакала ни по одному мужчине так, как по Гарри" (Роулинг) Роулинг в этом году впервые скачала электронные книги, ей очень понравилось - "тысяча книг в кармане", - но она любит бумагу. Вы будете следовать за историей. Вас распределят на один из факультетов, и вы получите волшебную палочку (одну из 33 000 возможных комбинаций материалов), спроектированную лично Роулинг. Роулинг напишет длинную биографию Макгонагалл - детство, карьера в министерстве, раннее разочарование в любви... Многие из команды, работающей над Pottermore - с Хаффлпаффа. Роулинг сказала, что "в команде нужны такие люди - они трудяги!" Если вас распределят не на Гриффиндор, то вы получите еще больше эксклюзивной информации о своем факультете. Сеттинг "Тайной комнаты" появится в 2012 году. Будет информация о долгой дружбе Макгонагалл и Дамблдора. Возможно, когда-нибудь будет издана бумажная энциклопедия, но Роулинг относится к ней без энтузиазма. Вернон и Петуния познакомились на работе. Эта история тоже будет на Pottermore.
Апдейт №6. JKR обновила свой официальный сайт статьей в разделе Новости.
Наверное, вы недавно заметили сов на нескольких сайтах, которые привели вас к видеозаписи на YouTube, где я объявила самые последние и интересные новости. POTTERMORE - это новый сайт, где вы сможете принять участие в онлайн-игре, основанной на книгах о Гарри Поттере и новой эксклюзивной информации от меня. Если вы хотите услышать объявление, нажмите сюда. Я буду общаться с вами на pottermore.com, но jkrowling.com остается моим личным сайтом, где будут расположены биография и библиография, а также ссылки на связанные со мной организации, в том числе - благотворительные фонды, которые я поддерживаю.

А на Ютубовском канале Ро стоит счетчик, что до объявления JKR осталось 6 дней и 22 часа.
***
JKR устроила сегодня развлекаловку всем ГП-фанам. На TLC объявили, что Ро открыла новый сайт Secretstreetview.com, на котором зашифровала свое послание. Чтобы найти его, нужно отыскать на 10 ГПшных сайтах специальные координаты, вбить их в строку поиска на Secretstreetview.com и составить из появившихся букв "волшебное письмо". В тексте новости была дана первая координата, после чего народ кинулся искать остальные девять. В конце концов еще восемь были найдены фанатами на разных сайтах, а адрес оставшегося десятого - составлен из букв, появлявшихся при вводе координат.
За морем - список сайтов, координат и букв, зашифрованных в послании, плюс скриншоты.

В итоге выяснилось, что Роулинг таким образом презентовала новый сайт - Pottermore.com. Что на нем будет - пока неизвестно, но Ро собственноручно написала там "Coming soon..."
12 июня Дэниэл Рэдклифф вручал награды, пел и танцевал на церемонии 65-й ежегодной премии Tony Awards, проходившей в Beacon Theatre в Нью-Йорке. Эта премия самых престижных театральных наград вручается за лучшие бродвейские постановки. Премия «Тони» названа в честь актрисы и режиссера Антуанетты Пери, и она вручается ежегодно с 1947 года.
21-летний актер играет в театре на Бродвее главную роль в мюзикле "Как преуспеть в бизнесе без особых усилий". Вместе с коллегами по труппе он спел песню "Brotherhood of Man" из этого мюзикла.
А щастье было так возможно... Последние несколько кругов этой длиннющей гонки вопли "Йес" и "Бля" неслись из моего окна с удручающей регулярностью. К сожалению, последних было больше((
Потрясающая была гонка. Правда меня как раз всё устроило. И выйгравший Баттон, и пятый Петров, и финишировавшая Маруся. Хотя Шумахера действительно жалко. Он меня на подиуме вместо Вебера устроил бы ещё больше.
