Mashable: MuggleNet top 'Magical Real-World Creation Inspired by Potter'

Earlier this week, Mashable rolled out their 5 Magical Real-World Creations Inspired by Harry Potter, and coming in at No. 2 on the list was MuggleNet! The top spot went to Bertie Botts Every Flavor Beans, which you can purchase courtesy of Jelly Belly.

"While not featured in the books or films, MuggleNet is an important part of the Harry Potter experience for most fans. Although J.K. Rowling recently beefed up Pottermore, the official site for the series, MuggleNet is a fan-helmed encyclopedia, forum, and hub for all things Harry Potter. There's even an iPhone app (download MuggleNet for iPhone) for enthusiasts eager to stay up-to-date with the latest Potter news."

Rounding out the list were Cornell University's work on a real Invisibility Cloak, ThinkGeek's magic wand remote and a blood test from Professor Wei Shan (inspired by the events in Chamber of Secrets).

Thanks to Mashable and of course, you, our visitors who continue to make MuggleNet the top Potter destination on the web.
