The Pottermore Insider blog posted today that the Pottermore beta period has been extended to the end of October in order to work out some issues and to collect more feedback from the beta group.
The blog reports that, with 1 million users now granted access to Pottermore and 55 million page views, user interaction has been "phenomenal".
Well, Pottermore is pretty awesome so the page views don't surprise me. The Unauthorzied Trio accesses (or tries to access!) Pottermore every day.
Unfortunately, the level of interaction has led to slow loading times and times when we haven't been able to access Pottermore at all. This will be even more of a problem once everyone is let onto Pottermore unless a solution is found before open access is granted.
So, I'm glad that's something they're going to address, even if it means a later general access date.
The blog post mentions that beta users will be surveyed to determine which aspects of the site need to be enhanced, and which aspects need to be simplified.
And I'm happy to report that apparently Wizard Dueling will be available again soon!
