The announcement is here
Pottermore.com tells us to come back on July 31st for a chance to get early access to Pottermore.
Guess who'll be staying up til midnight July 30th for a chance to get early access before it opens to all in October. Now I just need to switch my sunday with someone at work, cause if I know J.K. Rowling right, there will be riddles or something like that for us to solve.

Tomorrow - Pottermore announcement
The owls are gathering, well yeah!
And I'm working tomorrow when the countdown ends (which happens to be at 11am London-time, the same time that the Hogwarts Express leaves Platform 9¾), so I will be out of the loop until I get back home several hours later.
No fair.

Pottermore
I'm one of those Potterheads with a heart belonging in Ravenclaw (or more likely: hoping I belong in ravenclaw) so when I heard the word Pottermore... my heart literally skipped a beat. More Potter? Really? I get to continue?
I stumbled over the news while on twitter last night and I immediatelly hit google to find out what I had missed.It had all started with Secret Street View and the words "J. K. Rowling has something new to announce". Coordinates posted on different fansites (and finally on the twitteraccount @Pottermore) showed us letters that spelled out P-O-T-T-E-R-M-O-R-E and the adress http://www.pottermore.com was revealed. However, it didn't give us that much information with it's simple message of "Coming Soon".
This is where I caught up and jumped in to start speculating with everyone else. All we knew was that "This is not a new book", but soon images claiming to belong to Pottermore started appearing. Could it be an online encyclopedia? Some kind of online community?
But The Leaky Cauldron quickly brushed them off as old images, not belonging to Pottermore, which I fully believe since they are one of the fansites being given a preview of Pottermore and doesn't have any reason to spread lies.
However, during the night http://www.pottermore.com has been updated, and now there are owls leading to a countdown on youtube. Within a week we will have the answer.
We have a long week of speculation ahead of us. My favourite right now is the idea of a HP-MMORPG, even if it would make it difficult to get a chance to enjoy the sun this summer.

-Leaky has seen a preview of Pottermore and it is, in a word, breathtaking. That is all we are permitted to say at the moment.

-Sites overnight have been speculating on images that were posted on the fan site Clubedoslugue.com: These are old images that have been going around for months, and are not Pottermore.
