It's been awhile since JKRowling.com has been updated, but some alterations to the site have appeared. The title of Rowling's diary has changed to "Everything you might want to know" and a few books and links have also changed. Let us know if you find any other ones! Thanks to Leaky!

I got so excited when I heard about this...I was DETERMINED to find some kind of clue that she might be releasing a new book soon, but alas I failed. I think she simply just updated her site. :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-20 18:53:23

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-20 19:06:18

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-20 19:13:03

im glad she updated her site. it gives me hope that she may put up new content like news on what shes working on now or the encyclopedia.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-20 19:22:20

KylePotter, thats been there for quite a while. too bad nothing excting... the books on her shelf are just different (oddly animal farm is much bigger than emma haha) and then there are some things about what year and how well the books did. sighhhhh i was so excited when i saw that, same as iwantorlando i combed the site looking for something interesting but no dice. sighhhhh. and the removal of the diary is a very bad sign. :(

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-20 19:45:10

Yes, there are new contents to find for the scrapbook, well, *spoiler ....................... ..the one of the recipe behind the wallpaper in the room of requirement. 0_o

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 01:10:01

HPprincess, that scrapbook content is actually a couple years old. I didnt really remember it either, so Ive been looking it up. There are a total of 14 scrapbook items, and I am quite positive that there are no more, as I know how to check.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 02:54:29

@2_pac: youre so weird...lol.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 03:36:51

Youre a bit behind, Mugglenet XD. But the new diary is pretty informative. I guess we should be happy; that website has been neglected.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 05:32:46

Its amazing that people notice these small differences.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 07:03:11

This may just be something Ive never noticed, but after you swirl the tea cup in the rubbish bin so that a circle appears, you can click on the nearest salamander to make the tea leaves go back to normal.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 07:08:42

Oh wait - something else! Is that a new photo on the bulletin board?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 07:38:18

You can still take WOMBATS, just go to the time turner in the Room and go back to the date that each paper was put up

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 16:22:29

YAY! I def. will be checking everyday from now on in hopes. Hopefully something on The Scottish Book or another nonpotter related piece will be introduced through her site in the coming months. Please not let this be the beginning of a long wait for another update. I remember the last diary update was from December 6th, 2007. I miss those!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 16:58:20

hey today at work some guy came and he looked like slughorn oh and he was such a grouch

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 17:41:03

This is good now we know a little more about the book, the author and her life. I hope to see the encyclopedia of Hp soon.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 19:11:05

Oh no, I bet everyone will be absolutely SCRUTINIZING the web site. I have to agree though: her page has been neglected. We demand updates!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 19:26:21

Todays Percy Weasleys birthday. Im glad someone in her office finally updated the site.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 19:50:04

I thought she only updated her site. Not someone in her "office." But shes a busy woman. Shes got a husband and three kids, but I really really really hope she releases one of the three books she said she was working on very soon: the political fairy tale, the Scottish book, and the Adult Detective novel.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 19:56:32

dont know if this is new but I had the homepage on for ages minimised and the phone rang and I clicked the green button and someone said HELOOO then it went off. Dont know if it was JK Rowlings voice but volume was really low on my comp

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 21:33:00

one of my coaches kinda looks like the lion from the wizard of oz. its kinda creepy

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-21 22:48:16

least he doesnt look like those flying monkeys rite

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 05:09:07

Ohohoooo if they believe they can scramble everything we might want to know in those couple of pages they are sadly mistaken LOL were Potter fans after all - they should know better XD still nice of them to update the site - it really has been a long time. Heres hoping for some proper news soon *crosses fingers*

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 06:15:36

HPprincess - What do you have to get for the task behind the wallpaper in the Room of Requiment. I reeeaaally need to know!!! ...and Happy Birthday Percy!!!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 09:56:55

In the Everything you might want to know area, it has updates on when HBP (the movie) was released..

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 10:08:05

@King_A: Yup, it was JKR. Oh, is that spin top new in the Rubbish Bin area?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 11:32:35

ive noticed that in the "Everything you might want to know" bit, it says that she has written TWO companion/schoolbooks of Harrys -- and then it lists all THREE titles :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 12:51:54

Cool :)

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 15:31:17

The "Do Not Disturb" sign is back on the door, too! Does that mean were gonna get a new surprise next time it opens? (:

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 20:14:37

I dont have the Do Not Disturb sign on the door. But I did get the Christmas tree and the riddles inside the door which I had not seen before, with the spinning time-turner. It could be a very old thing...from last Xmas, that I just did not see before. Anyway, the riddles were good and I enjoyed that!

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-22 23:03:43

Theres a Weasely family tree behind the door. Its odd everyones married and has kids except for Charli. What does he turn out to be gay as well? JK completely got rid of him in the end when the rest of the family was there to fight in the last battle.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-23 05:55:01

krazykobra29, I had trouble doing the timeturner, until I switched to Internet Explorer. So if you use an older version of Firefox, try to dig up IE

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-23 16:05:07

If you go on the secret room page where she used to release book release dates and book titles, theres now a Time Turner at the bottom by the mirror. Keep clicking the wheel upwards and then click on the hourglass. It takes you to 23/08/09 which is today. The door has a Do Not Disturb sign back up. Encyclopedia please?

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-24 09:14:01

Danwea is right. When you open the secret room, the door is automatically set to the date it was last opened. You have to use the time-turner to get to today which is where the sign is hanging.

Posted by: - Posted on: 2009-08-24 15:44:57

In the mystery room with the door and eraser I loaded it up then went to the mall and then when i returned the mirror said peeves was here so I left then returned the the ? room and it was gone
